I receive the same results using mail=*.  Following is the latest  
ldapsearch command.

ldapsearch -D "cn=admin_user,cn=users,dc=xx,dc=com" -x -w "password" - 
h 10.129.10.42 -p 3268 -b 'dc=abc,dc=com' -s sub '(! 
(objectclass=computer))' '(mail=*)' dn mail

Is it possible to search on the attribute, mail, not being present?

Thanks,


Jay
