That's broken behavior by the LDAP server, not postfix.Well, when I was testing, I had stopped the LDAP server, so it was not returning anything to Postfix. I probably have something else misconfigured on Postfix. I will have a look. Thanks!
The only time i can remember of something like that was when LDAP was used with nsswitch.conf as user/group lookup with broken libc.
