Ok, a couple of things. I looked at the source and you're right: setting 
ExtLookupCryptox (actually this is ExtLookupCrypto in the source code but I 
tried that setting and it doesn't work either) makes a call to start TLS. 

I think the problem might be that DSPAM hard codes the scheme to "ldap" when it 
should be "ldaps" in my case. I think the best thing would be to just drop the 
scheme assembling and just let the user specify the uri themselves.  The crypto 
parameter should also make it clear that it's doing start TLS which isn't the 
same thing as "ldaps". 

Thanks for the info about start TLS vs ldaps. I hadn't known that.
