The entry you give looks OK.  However, I know it would not work on our LDAP 
server.  That is because our LDAP server has additional security that 
prevents access to certain attributes if you are bound anonymously, or if you 
are on a non-SSL connection.

Is it possible that your LDAP system denies visibility of the mail attribute 
because of either the bind identity or because you are not using SSL?  Also, 
are you certain that your LDAP entries have the email address in a 'mail' 
attribute, and that this one in particular has that attribute?  Maybe use an 
'ldapsearch' command to retrieve the record from the sympa host command line 
and verify it all works as expected.
