no, you're correct.  email account access through imap4 from ogo works 
great.

i assume you are ready to have separate sign-on's.
one for nt auth and one for ogo.

single signon's are difficult.
sign on to nt -> kerberos auth ticket -> ogo access granted.

i'm not sure but there's currently no kerberos-ogo interface except 
through openldap
and i believe kerberos-openldap code is still early beta... not quite 
ready for
production. ( please correct if i'm mistaken)

separate ogo user db kept up to date via cron job is better.

off the top of my head you'd need:

nt user list -> export to openldap -> ogo authenticates's against ldap.
or
nt user list -> xml-rpc script to sync ogo db

also:
associated scripts that sync when new nt network user is added to network.

maybe the community has some other ideas?
