I think man pages should be written originally not in wiki format, but in some 
format made for unix documentation.

IMHO doing a man page for every ~control file is better, it'll be more easy to 
find.
If you want to teach people about the architecture, I'd extend "The big qmail 
picture" and turn it into a more in depth qmail-ldap architecture doc.

We should think in making life easier for new people and sysadmins. Most 
people will not look for man pages in wiki, but in shell.
