samba - May 2005 - PDC Preference

I have a question, of course...

We are currently running a network using samba3 with security = user ,
mainly because i started with a 2x version and just updated last
month.  Everything went great but I am wondering if this is still the
best setting... There are no windows servers left ( i killed them all
)  but i do have all winxp pro clients and there loging in fine, i
have a second linux server that runs a
fetchmail->procmail->spamassassin->postfix script  that i have
manually created user  accounts on that the users pick there mail up
from.

I have openLDAP running but i am not using it or sure if that is the
best choice, i was also thinking about loading samba on my second
server as a BDC..
there are about 20 users in the domain.

Any Suggestions ?

1. You could migrate your postfix users to LDAP... but you knew that
probably.
2. You could set up a BDC for training or practice and perhaps to test
and see if it will provide advantages. Not sure if I would bother with
an LDAP back-end for only 20 users though unless you have some growth
projected or if you want to learn it.
