Michael is right in finding a problem here. A lookup such as
${lookup ldap {<url>}{true-string}{false-string}}
has no provision for handling defers. Inside drivers, action is usually
taken at a higher level. "Some lookup we are doing couldn't be
completed: better defer delivery" is what usually happens.
