Based on the error message (“Can't contact LDAP server”) it appears 
the problem is more basic. I should also be able to reproduce the 
problem if the server is accessible (I don't need to authenticate, just 
connect). You can send details off list if you like.

Note that the `ldapsearch` Terminal command could be useful in order to 
verify that it works as expected outside MailMate.

(Even though this is an old feature it should still be considered 
experimental/primitive.)
