I'll admit I don't understand what you're trying to do with the above parameters, but let me share what I'm using and see if it helps. I happen to be using a pure virtual configuration, with my mail users logging in using their full email address as a username. So all I need to store in LDAP is the email address and the password.

This is the difference, here they can login either with their full email address (also aliases) or with their internal userid (which is 16 char hex). The home directory is derived from the latter, but since they can also login with the mailaddress I can't use anything from the supplied username to set the directory/mail location.
