That's because there was never any plan to implement it! If LDAP was a
priority for you, then a year ago would have been a good time to politely
find out that there was no plan to implement it, and set about arranging
someone to do it. This is still the best course of action (although Beonex
have got there before you.)

There's an unofficial LDAP server. But we have no need for it - our 10,000
users are managed perfectly compentently, thanks :-)

Why? It doesn't stop doing those things which you seem to want it for!
It'll always be a good IMAP client (at least, until they rev. the IMAP
standard again.)
