You are focusing on the wrong symptom. The real problem is that you
are using "bare" LDAP tables:

        ldap:...

not proxymap LDAP  tables:

        proxy:ldap:...

You'll find your LDAP servers are much happier, once you are using
proxymap. Yes, you can also tweak the query patterns a bit, by setting
the "domain = ... " attribute in the LDAP tables, but this is rarely
necessary, just a useful optimization if you only query for full
addresses in an a-priori fixed set of domains.
