From my dovecot-ldap.conf:

uris = ldaps://ldap1.ehu.es ldaps://ldap2.ehu.es ldaps://ldap3.ehu.es

It works fine, and if ldap1 doesn't respond, it goes with ldap2. All the 
servers are RHEL4.

In my experience, most problems with ldaps:// connecitions are certificate 
related. Try adding something like

TLS_REQCERT     allow

to your /etc/openldap/ldap.conf, and if that works, the problem is with your 
certificates, and you'll need something like

TLS_CACERT      /etc/openldap/cacerts/yourcert.pem

in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
