Postfix gets the information from THE SYSTEM LIBRARY FUNCTION
getpwnam_r().
* If getpwnam_r() reports DOESNOTEXIST then Postfix MUST report
that the user does not exist.
* If getpwnam_r() reports an ERROR, then Postfix will reply with
4xx.
If getpwnam_r() reports DOESNOTEXIST when LDAP is down, either the
PAM LDAP client, or code between getpwnam_r() and the PAM LDAP
client, are mis-reporting the error condition.
Please file a bug with your system provider, so that people are not
losing email because of a mis-reported error with LDAP.
