I am working on an interface for managing scalable mail systems (to be
released under GPL) and I would like to use Cake!

The user directory is stored in LDAP. I have a bunch of PHP code which
uses reflection and crude to access the LDAP data in a clean way, and I
want to convert it over to cake.

Has anyone done this already? Do people know of example code I could
look at for a Model which doesn't use SQL? I see a lot of SQL specific
stuff in the Model class... will this be a problem? Do I need to just
create a new datasource, or will I also need a new Model class?

A search of LDAP in this group returns this post:

Sounds like just what I want. Any idea how I could track down the
someone using LDAP data instead of database rows?
