These two authenticators work for me for "all"[1] MUAs:
(sorry for the long lines, but you did too!)

begin authenticators

login:
        driver = plaintext
        public_name = LOGIN
        server_prompts = Username:::Password::
        server_condition = ${if ldapauth \
                { user="cn=${quote_ldap:$1},ou=People,dc=dcs,dc=qmul,dc=ac,dc=uk" \
                pass="$2" ldap:/// }{yes}{no}}
        server_set_id = $1


plain:
        driver = plaintext
        public_name = PLAIN
# this is for pine
        server_prompts = :
        server_condition = ${if ldapauth \
                { user="cn=${quote_ldap:$2},ou=People,dc=dcs,dc=qmul,dc=ac,dc=uk" \
                pass="$3" ldap:/// }{yes}{no}}
        server_set_id = $2



Note the "server_prompts = :", which Pine wants in order to continue after
auth plain. The RFCs aren't totally clear as to whether this is Right or
not, but a lot of these RFCs were written by the authors of Pine!

HTH (and sorry for the lack of decent explanation--due to my hangover :-/)
