Not a big setup. Only one qmail-ldap/ldap/imap server...nothing serious.

pperl is a way to make perl program persitent i memmory (e.g. like 
SpeedyCGI), it is for skipping the overhead by loading perl & qpsmtpd 
everytime tcpserver invokes it. I think the problem is that it doesn't 
reset it en vars on each invocation. I have mailed the qpsmtpd 
mailinglist as there has been a lot of discussion about pperl vs. 
SpeedyCGI recently. The problem doesn't realy have anything to do with 
qmail-ldap i think. The pbs is working fine when qpsmtpd is not running 
under pperl :-)
