we use cucipop+sendmail for now in production test box running cucipop+pam_ldap, sendmail+ldap, proclaim+pam_ldap another test box is running qmail+ldap with qmail pop3 server and ldap control patch. to get first box working was pain in the neck, but qmail just with little time was up and running to convert from password file i don't think is difficult, if you use pam_ldap, there is tools to do that check this site http://www.padl.com/OSS/pam_ldap.html we have all our users in billing system, so all we have to do is write little ldap interface to sync them with ldap db.
