Hiya,
    Possibly just being paranoid, but if there was an LDAP failure you dont
want to bounce legitimate mail.  We have a cron job that does an LDAP
lookup and creates a list of valid email addresses in a local BDB  if new
entries are created.  The cron job notifies us before large scale
deletion...
