I think your parenthesized explanation is the best reason to go with
qmail. With qmail, no modifications are needed. You'll have to write
your own checkpassword, and qmail-getpw, but they are 132 lines and 88
lines respectively. Not exactly rocket science, even after you
include the code to query your SQL database.
