It looks to me like each line of the postalAddress has been entered as a
separate value. In LDAP, you need to separate multiple lines by the the
"dollar sign", e.g.,

CaIR/DCB 367 $ University of Denver $ Denver, CO 80208

See RFC-1778 for more details on how attribute values are represented in
LDAP.
