Hello!

As I didn't have the opportunity to test with an Exchange server, I 
think the username is simply the username. If it's not working, try the 
'imtest' program (it's in cyrus-imapd package) to see what's going 
wrong, e.g. run imtest -m NTLM serveraddress.
And finally, have you installed cyrus sasl's NTLM plugin?

Bye,
György
