You are wrong. Attribute mail is multivalued, and is used as such. This bug is already known, and it is a Thunderbird/Lightning bug, as it always uses the last email address it gets for a user, instead of the registered one. As LDAP has no means of sorting multi value attributes, you almost always get the wrong one. It should use the registered one and the one used in the event.
