I have a qmail server, which cannot be changed into anything else, because it is part of a much larger system. It should route all emails to a Zarafa server, which only uses the LMTP protocol and to which I don't have physical access.

How is it possible to make qmail deliver the emails to the LMTP server?

A: 

I don't see any indication that qmail supports LMTP. Could you redirect to an exim process which runs the LMTP delivery. This could be configured as a pipe delivery target. Alternatively, exim could run on another port or server.

No, I couldn't. I'm trying to avoid installing Postfix/exim/whatever other email server besides qmail.

As far as I can see from the documentation I have seen you will need a shim of some sort which supports LMTP. Exim does not need to be run as a mail server. It can be configured to act only as an MDA.
