Yes, I have encountered this with 2-3 of my users who just refuse to
leave Eudora. It's not a problem with this number, but if everybody used
it then it would be.

Fine if people log on then, but they don't need to have their maildir
stored in their home directory. Set your global pine configuration to
use IMAP instead of accessing an mbox. This takes away fast text
grepping, but provides alot of ease for administration. Qmail-LDAP will
work in this environment.
