LDAP bind auth used to be enabled by default (and not configurable) before the dovecot 2.4 migration. I changed the default option value to match the old Dovecot 2.3 behavior. The use of authentication bind is required for LDAP servers that simply do not have such LDAP attribute like Kanidm, or in cases where the password scheme used is not supported by Dovecot.
