Currenty the data type of 'mail' attricute in core.shema is IA5 String
(1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26{256}), in a normal operating, it
accepts the empty string when the entry is firstly added, however if
there is a value in the 'mail' attribute and you come back and trying
to change it to the empty string, it'll return:

ldap_modify: Invalid syntax (21)
       additional info: mail: value #0 invalid per syntax

prevent it from the changing. Is there any ways to change the behavior
or any other data type that we may change to to allow it accept the
empty string?

Thanks!

Angie
