OK now I understand... Postfix receives mails in firstname.lastn...@domain.com format, and does an LDAP lookup to Active Directory to determine the 'flastname' login-name format (for delivery to /home/AD/flastname/Maildir/). It would then seem that we'd need a method to do a reverse lookup at Dovecot's 'deliver' time and determine the valid To: addresses from LDAP.
