yes, same UID/GID because they are infact the same user. What I was hoping to do was to either tell dovecot they are infact the same or mask one of them so dovecot ignored one.

I would rather drop support for the system /etc/passwd file and move every user into the dovecot users file before moving to ldap. My setup would not warrent that. Dave McGuire had a similar idea of using an SQL stored proc which also probably would have worked but just too complicated for what i'm doing.
