you are using the stock "mail" attribute in LDAP as:
olcAttributeTypes: ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.3
NAME ( 'mail' 'rfc822Mailbox' )
DESC 'RFC1274: RFC822 Mailbox'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreIA5Match
SUBSTR caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{256} )
http://www.oid-info.com/get/1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IA5STRING
IA5 :- 7bit
noticed that some of the fields, like 'dn' and 'cn' where
automatically
encoded in base64 when stored when including accentuated chars.
you mean when you use ldapsearch or similiar tool to export data? LDIF
traditionally encode all data in 7bit ASCII, which is noted by the
double "::" after the LDAP attribute name. The data in LDAP is UTF8
and binary connections need not encode it either.

Hello Steffen,
Thank you for your answer.
In fact, I am using the otherMailBox attribute, from the standard
OpenLDAP distribution, which is also IA5String.
- Is there any way in Dovecot to encode the fields in base 64, to send
queries? as the query is "eq", this would be enough, I think.
- Or is the LDAP server is supposed to store attributes as UTF8, and in
this case, how to configure it that way?
Thanks!
