There is a big difference between username-whatever and username-catchall.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a perfect match and so no extension
handling is done. For qmail-ldap this is like [EMAIL PROTECTED] only
with a [EMAIL PROTECTED] entry dash extension is used.

Similar happens in stock qmail too. If you have two local user e.g qmail
and qmail-ldap then mails to qmail-ldap are deliverd to the qmail-ldap
user and not to the qmail user with extension -ldap -> .qmail-ldap
