I'm currently using Samba to create usernames for windows 8.1
The user I created was able to login to the domain properly. but the only problem is that whenever you wanted to use Outlook as your e-mail client it seems to have issues receiving e-mails(Authentication issues). what is more strange is that when you use a different e-mail program(thunderbird) it seems to work properly.
I tried re-creating the profile and the user on my server side but it seems to be the same issue.
Here are some logs from Dovecot IP address and e-mail address is hidden for security reasons.

Here is the error from outlook
When you setup the account there is a part where you can test the e-mail settings and once you clicked that it will ask again for the password and when you type the password it will give you this error.
Log onto incoming mail server (POP3): Your e-mail server rejected your login. verify your user name and password for this account in Account Settings. The server responded: -ERR Authentication failed.
I'm a bit confused to this as the same settings worked in thunderbird and on on another PC with a working profile.
Thanks for the replies.
