You can use the ambient colour setting in your material, and the ambient
light setting in the environment, to control the light in the areas in
shadow.

This blog post seems to cover the very basics of the (fixed pipeline)
lighting nicely with screenshots,

 and the Ogre manual has the specific info,

It doesn't make much a difference, Ogre and the material system,
EC_Light etc. are the same. 

However, the ways to control the environment lighting are clearer now.
If I recall correctly, in Tundra1 the EnvirontModule always creates a
sky with Caelum and sets up some ambient light etc. In Tundra2 that hard
coding is finally removed, but you can add a sky with the new SkyX
component or set ambient light with the EC_EnvironmentLight starting
from a clean table. The 'properties' section in the docs show how the
parameters are in tundra2 now,
