Hello

I know, it sounds sort of strange, but is it possible to run a
qmail-ldap installation without a running LDAP-server?

Right now, we have a perfectly working qmail-ldap installation, but
since it is a dedicated mailman list-server, it has no entries in the
LDAP-directory. Everything is a localdelivery via a virtualdomain
mapped to the mailman user.

Now I wonder if we could, for operational reasons, turn the
LDAP-server off (every service you don't depend on is a good service).

If I turn off the LDAP server right now, incoming mails stay in the
queue and I get the following, perfectly reasonable log entry:

"deferral: Unable_to_contact_LDAP_server._(#4.4.3)"

How could I prevent qmail-lspawn to try to connect the LDAP-server
alltogether?

QLDAP_TIMEOUT only handles the failover to a second LDAP-server and
LDAPSOFTOK only affects qmail-smtpd, right?

Any hints are very welcome!

Thanks
Thomas
