Dovecot is very configurable, but it can also take some time, effort and
testing to get the configuration you want. Personally I don't mix user
types since it takes out an element of complexity.

For your case you might find it useful to look into auth_default_realm

that can specify a domain name when one is not supplied.

Other things that might be useful: there is a method for returning a
"user" field from the userdb query or passdb query which will change the
username. Or there is another setting that can overriding values of
fields returned by the userdb.

Hope it helps!
