I think it should be julie.o\\\'reilly in there. Have to check why.

But I think your client (PHP webmail with automatic slashing enabled?)
is sending the initial \ here. Try logging in manually with telnet to
make sure.
The previous log output is with me telnetting in manually, however the
webmail software (roundcube) produces the same results.
It's not an apostrophe - it's an unmatched quote. You'll probably get
faster results by changing to logins that don't anger input string
sanity checks. Otherwise, be prepared to wait a while for a solution.
Probably not what you want to hear, but if you have people knocking down
the door over this problem, you're going to have to use what will work.

I understand how it could be interpreted as an unmatched quote but
according to Timo
(http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg09489.html) this
should work.
At any rate since the user database is provided by the client from their
(various) systems it's unlikely I will be able to change user names.
Try a different auth method.
Do you mean try MySQL or PAM etc? I may be able to do that on another
install however this project requires user accounts to be stored in LDAP
so will need LDAP auth working one way or another.
Start with PAM or some other "simple" auth method. If it works and LDAP
won't, then you know it's not Doevcot and to focus on LDAP - either
Dovecot's LDAP module or LDAP itself.
