SYMPTOMS
POP3/IMAP clients are not authenticated correctly if your Microsoft Exchange-based server (which is also a domain controller) is configured to use NTLM version 2 authentication and the LmCompatibilityLevel setting is set to 5.
CAUSE
When the LogonUser function is called with LOGON32_LOGON_NETWORK, the function does not work if the LmCompatibilityLevel setting is set to 5.
