As far as I know, this and various other in-many-cases-essential
configuration options aren't available through exim or the LDAP URL which is
documented at
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1959.txt , notably:
4. Security Considerations
The LDAP URL format does not provide a way to specify credentials to
use when resolving the URL. Therefore, it is expected that such
requests will be unauthenticated. The security implications of
resolving an LDAP URL are the same as those of resolving any LDAP
query. See the RFC 1777 for more details.
