"Moreover, the authentication mode in use by Windows with Samba and
Exchange servers prevent the backend from knowing the real password
being used by the user. This implies that the IMAP server must accept
any passwords from the host on which Samba is running.
To accomplish this with Cyrus IMAP Server, set “sasl_pwcheck_method” to
“alwaystrue” in
/etc/imapd.conf. You should restrain this to an imapd instance dedicated
to SOGo."
