The LDAP code that was actually ingrained in the mailer in 4.x
probably wouldn't be that useful, since most of the surrounding code
has been re-written. The low-level LDAP code that does the networking
stuff is part of the LDAP C SDK, and I've written a (partially
complete) XPCOM wrapper for that as well as an ldap: URL-handler that
uses the XPCOM wrapper. Not yet turned on in the default builds
(still a bit more cleanup work to do), but you can try building your
own; instructions are at <http://www.mozilla.org/directory/xpcom.html>.
This still leaves the addressbook integration and typedown addressing
work to be done...
