qmail-ldap support {SSHA} passwords. You can use /var/qmail/bin/digest to
generate and compare passwords.

/var/qmail/bin/digest -t SSHA test
{SSHA}pe4Aki/vGL+eQjO6aVDg33cFCLyB1p5x3H/m1kyGz3FoefscUOo=
/var/qmail/bin/digest -v test "{SSHA}pe4Aki/vGL+eQjO6aVDg33cFCLyB1p5x3H/m1kyGz3FoefscUOo="
passwords are equal.
