We use LDAP authentication here, but not through Apache.  We use an LDAP 
user authentication overlay which handles both logging in and email user 
creation.  There are links to it in the "Extensions" part of the 
Contributions wiki page at

It works a treat, except for autogenerating accounts for CCs on an 
inbound email.  We can live with that for the moment.
