makes no sense IMHO tun run qmailp-ldap AND vmailmgr.

Well, that depends. I've written this document without any respect to a
special OS (but be sure it's always accurate for OpenBSD ;-) )

If you enable SSL, yes, of course.

no. just ldap client libs. You'll need an ldap server of course...

You don't need Kerberos for qmail-ldap. It's qmail-ldap, not qmail-kerberos...

qmail-pop3d itself is no program. qmail-ldap's auth_pop replaces
checkpassword (or checkvpw in your example)

No need for Virtual Domains in qmail-ldap. There are just users having email
addresses. the servers FQDN isn't stored in LDAP. Just user records are in
LDAP.

qnail-ldap has builtin rbl support.
