Newbie question:
I am looking to implement the following configuration.  Can I do it with
Qmail, Cyrus IMAP and OpenLDAP?

Three site network 100 users each. Each site is connected to the main site
with T1 leased lines. Each site has a Qmail server and Cyrus IMAP server and
LDAP server.  The OpenLDAP config is one central Primary server and the
remote locations are replicas of the hq site.   All inbound mail from
Internet to foo.com enters into the hq site. All users must use the
corporate email address foo.com regardless of what server their mail locally
resides on.

Inbound mail
==>>  Inbound mail from Internet (MX resolves to a qmail smtp server in
DMZ) ==>  dmz server relays mail through firewall to primary qmail smtp
server inside the firewall ==>    the primary server looks at the recipient
and searches LDAP for the recipients mail server. ==> If the LDAP lookup
determines that the recipient is local, the mail is delivered locally to
Cyrus.  ==> If the LDAP lookup determines the recipient is on a remote mail
server the mail is relayed to the remote mail server (i.e.
location1.foo.com) ==> the remote mail server delivers the mail locally to
Cyrus IMAP.


Outbound mail (From remote location1)
===>> Mail received from mail client - searched LDAP for recipient location
==>  mail delivered locally if the recipient is local ==> mail relayed to
remote mail server (i.e. hq.foo.com) if recipient is remote ==> if mail is
destined for Internet, mail is sent via location 1's Internet connection to
destination's mail server.

Any issues with this config?  Has anyone done this?  What's the LDAP schema?
Thanks in advance.
