I suspect that there's something wrong in your LDAP server setup.  I'm
using slapd+Evos on a small network (<10 workstations) for years and
never had such problems.  In any event, you should be able to read
your entries with Evo/GQ or any LDAP client.

If you're willing to investigate this further, please mail me offlist
your slapd.conf (removing any sensitive info) and two exported in LDIF
format example contacts - one that you're able to view in GQ and one
that is apparently not added.

Also it's worth to try with latest Evo/e-d-s, although I'm quite
confident that this is not an Evolution issue.
