not this:

dn:o=qmailusers,dc=mail,dc=hollybridge,dc=not
objectClass: top
sn: hollybridge mail users
cn: qmailusers

dn:uid=yjl,o=qmailusers,dc=mail,dc=hollybridge,dc=not
objectClass: person
cn: yin jiangliang
sn: yin
uid:yjl

And then:

ldapadd -x -D "o=qmailusers,dc=mail,dc=hollybridge,dc=not" -w secret -f example.ldif

and You change also in your slapd.conf the ROOTDN !!
(maybe you forgot it ? )

(NB: why coma:  [root@mail bin]# ldapadd -x -D "cn=qmailusers,dc=mail,dc=hollybridge,dc=not", -w secret -f
example.ldif  )
