Please do not top post.

Please always copy the list in replies if you want further help.

I don't see any obvious changes between OpenLDAP 2.4.28 and current release 
(2.4.35) addressing why your schema wasn't added, but my first step would 
be to confirm whether or not you see this behavior if you use a release of 
OpenLDAP that isn't a year and a half old.

It certainly works (in general) for me with OpenLDAP 2.4.35:

zimbra@zre-ldap002:~$ ldapadd -x -H ldapi:/// -D cn=config -w zimbra
dn: cn=stSchema,cn=schema,cn=config
objectClass: olcSchemaConfig
olcObjectClasses: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.666.1.1 NAME 'stPerson' SUP 
inetOrgPerson STRUCTURAL MUST correo)
olcAttributeTypes: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.666.1.2 NAME 'correo' SUP mail)

adding new entry "cn=stSchema,cn=schema,cn=config"

zimbra@zre-ldap002:~$ ldapsearch -LLL -x -H ldapi:/// -D cn=config -w 
zimbra -b "cn=schema,cn=config"  1.1
dn: cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={0}core,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={1}cosine,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={2}inetorgperson,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={3}dyngroup,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={4}zimbra,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={5}amavisd,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={6}opendkim,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={7}stSchema,cn=schema,cn=config
