Hi,

what you could try to do, is provide us wuth the openldap logs (check 
syslog to find them out). As said dave, you are probably searching for 
an attribute which does not exist in you schema.
Could you also send us the configuration file of tpop3d ???

We'll then try to help you. I also suggest to have a look to 
www.openldap.org, and learn some stuffs about ldap. It's very simple to 
setup tpop3d with ldap, as long as you know how does Ldap work.

Cheers,
