If you want to debug this config further, I would
1) enable auth_debug in Dovcot, see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Logging
2) check with telnet if authentification works in Dovecot
3) check if SMTP AUTH works
If you don't trust ISPConfig, then ignore this VM, check out the Dovecot
Wiki2 and its Postfix howto.
Is there a best possible OS for running Dovecot/Postfix? That would be a step
in the right direction. Ubuntu is great for running WordPress, but I recognize
there are different OSes out there. I don't care if it's Linux-based or a BSD
distribution.
I don't think there is a "best" OS. You could compile Dovecot yourself,
the development packages of dependencies are available in most (all?)
distributions, then you are not stuck on one particular version of
Dovecot.
Will Dovecot/Postfix scale without a RDBMS backing it up? Or will OpenLDAP
suffice?
Dovecot will work fine with OpenLDAP, esp. because it implements caching.
