Your best bet would be to wait for James to have better LDAP/JNDI support.
If you need to do this with JDBC, you'll need to create a custom user
repository, or create a view that matches what James expects.

Messages/mailboxes are not stored in the same location as user records.

No. It will do that automatically. But it does need to be told to create a
new user record, or there has to be one. Several people have written tools
for managing JDBC user repositories directly.
