Hi!

It is totally possible to use LDAP with master password, using configuration 
like this:

# this must be first
passdb {
  driver = static
  args = password=masterpass
}

# current passdb config

# you probably already have this
userdb {
  driver = ldap
  args = /path/to/ldap/userdb
}

If this does not work, please send your `doveconf -n` as well.
