Sympa version: Sympa 6.2.66
Location of auth.conf: /etc/sympa/auth.conf
C
ontent of auth.conf:

ldap
    host                    ldap.server.net
    timeout                 30
    suffix                  ou=users,ou=accounts,dc=tree,dc=net
    bind_dn                 cn=admin,dc=tree,dc=net
    bind_password           _hidden_
    get_dn_by_uid_filter    (uid=[sender])
    get_dn_by_email_filter  (maildrop=[sender])
    email_attribute         maildrop
    scope                   sub
    use_tls                 starttls
    ca_verify               required
    ca_path                 /usr/local/share/ca-certificates
    ca_file                 /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/us.crt

Thank you for pointing to the log_level parameter. It's in the man page
and I completely overlooked it. I do have a lot more log output now but
the auth.conf seems to still be ignored silently.
