This option must be used if you want to use the LDAP database in Kerio MailServer since

the LDAP server in Kerio MailServer does not allow anonymous connections.

Account ID — user name. When connecting to the Kerio MailServer’s LDAP database, it

user

(jwayne) pattern for the specification.

Password — user password
