I create a user, and set them up with an initial password, home directory, mail account (on another server the ODR), and save the record.

Everything works great, but when I go to meet with the user, we change their password, and it seems to work.

However, if we change the password on the mail server, we cannot authenticate to the AFP server (also the ODM, where we first created the user).

If I change the password via the finder while connecting to the AFP server, I can no longer access mail services.

It seems like something is messed up in the replication, but neither the old or new passwords work when authenticating to the "broken" service.

Please tell me what information I need to gather to be more helpful in my problem description. I would delete the Replication and recreate it, but I'm afraid that it will also delete the mail for those users.

Can you try changing the users password type from Open Directory to Crypt? I have run into a problem similar to this, and that is what I did to resolve the issue.
