If the qmail-users mechanism is configured, that's used -- `man qmail-users`
for details. Fallback is qmail-getpw, which relies on the system's
implementation of the getpwnam() function.
stock qmail doesn't know anything about LDAP. I don't know if LDAP-patched
qmail gets user information in a different way. If not, you could dump your
LDAP users information through qmail-pw2u and qmail-newu to use the
qmail-users mechanism.
