Not sure why dovecot, or any client, would be complaining about an unknown password storage scheme since it should not know anything about the password storage scheme as it's supposed to be handled by the Directory Server internally.

You're bang on the money here Mark. Lots of "older" unix applications like dovecot *read* the raw hashes and try to actually compute and compare them themselves, rather than sending the pw cleartext and letting the ldap server do the work.

It'll be a config on the dovecot or postfix side. 

It's been about 10 years since I ran dovecot for IMAP+SASL, but this sounds like an issue with how postfix is working with dovecot for the user/auth process. 

Sorry I don't think we can help much in this case :(
