qmail-getpw considers an account in /etc/passwd to be a user if (1)
the account has a nonzero uid, (2) the account's home directory exists
(and is visible to qmail- getpw), and (3) the account owns its home
directory. qmail-getpw ignores account names containing uppercase
letters. qmail-getpw also assumes that all account names are shorter than
32 characters.
Are all of these conditions true for your LDAP users? What is the exact
output of the command:
qmail-getpw ldap_user_name | tr '\0' '\n'

You said you're not using qmail-users. Does qmail-LDAP still use qmail-getpw
then? If not, that would explain this, if you're actually using qmail-LDAP (I
can't remember if you said you were).
