+# NOTE: If you're not using authentication binds, you'll need to give
+# dovecot-auth read access to userPassword field in the LDAP server.
+# With OpenLDAP this is done by modifying /etc/ldap/slapd.conf. There should
+# already be something like this:
+
+# access to attribute=userPassword
+#        by dn="<dovecot's dn>" read # add this
+#        by anonymous auth
+#        by self write
+#        by * none
+
+# Space separated list of LDAP hosts to use. host:port is allowed too.
+#hosts =
+
+# LDAP URIs to use. You can use this instead of hosts list. Note that this
+# setting isn't supported by all LDAP libraries.
+#uris = 
+
+# Distinguished Name - the username used to login to the LDAP server
+#dn = 
+
+# Password for LDAP server
+#dnpass = 
+
+# Use SASL binding instead of the simple binding. Note that this changes
+# ldap_version automatically to be 3 if it's lower. Also note that SASL binds
+# and auth_bind=yes don't work together.
+#sasl_bind = no
+# SASL mechanism name to use.
+#sasl_mech =
+# SASL realm to use.
+#sasl_realm =
+# SASL authorization ID, ie. the dnpass is for this "master user", but the
+# dn is still the logged in user. Normally you want to keep this empty.
+#sasl_authz_id =
+
+# Use TLS to connect to the LDAP server.
+#tls = no
+
+# Use authentication binding for verifying password's validity. This works by
+# logging into LDAP server using the username and password given by client.
+# The pass_filter is used to find the DN for the user. Note that the pass_attrs
+# is still used, only the password field is ignored in it. Before doing any
+# search, the binding is switched back to the default DN.
+#auth_bind = no
+
+# If authentication binding is used, you can save one LDAP request per login
+# if users' DN can be specified with a common template. The template can use
+# the standard %variables (see user_filter). Note that you can't
+# use any pass_attrs if you use this setting.
+#
+# If you use this setting, it's a good idea to use a different
+# dovecot-ldap.conf for userdb (it can even be a symlink, just as long as the
+# filename is different in userdb's args). That way one connection is used only
+# for LDAP binds and another connection is used for user lookups. Otherwise
+# the binding is changed to the default DN before each user lookup.
+#
+# For example:
+#   auth_bind_userdn = cn=%u,ou=people,o=org
+#
+#auth_bind_userdn =
+
+# LDAP protocol version to use. Likely 2 or 3.
+#ldap_version = 2

+# internal names are:
+#   uid - System UID
+#   gid - System GID

+# There are also other special fields which can be returned, see
+# http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields
+#user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid

+# Filter for user lookup. Some variables can be used (see
+# http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables for full list):
+#   %u - username
+#   %n - user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain
+#   %d - domain part in user@domain, empty if user there's no domain
+#user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))
+
+# Password checking attributes:
+#  user: Virtual user name (user@domain), if you wish to change the
+#        user-given username to something else
+#  password: Password, may optionally start with {type}, eg. {crypt}
+# There are also other special fields which can be returned, see
+# http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields
+#pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password
+
+# If you wish to avoid two LDAP lookups (passdb + userdb), you can use
+# userdb prefetch instead of userdb ldap in dovecot.conf. In that case you'll
+# also have to include user_attrs in pass_attrs field prefixed with "userdb_"
+# string. For example:
+#pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid
+
+# Filter for password lookups
+#pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))
