You didn't actually use 'ABCD!efgh12345$67890' as the password ?

It is, as it says, a dummy password and if you add the Unix attributes
with ADUC, this is what you get for every user.

You will need to supply the password in what ever way the service you
are going to use it for requires i.e. SSHA

You will also need to tell what ever service it is, how to get the
password

If Dovecot is involved, you can set this up to use the users AD
password.
