There are some possibilities: Use a pop and smtp server which works with
PAM, then you just have to drop your pam_ldap.so into the pam.d/ files..
If you use courier for pop/imap it can handle ldap natively, and postfix
for smtp can do this via sasl...

I guess there are some existing scripts, but if you can't find one, it
should be a very short perl-script, some kind of splitting passwd-lines
and assigning rows to ldap-attributes and add them as whole object into
the directory...
