Simple-search filter with LDAP enabled (R5.0.3)

Beginning in R5.0.3, the LDAP account record has a new setting to turn on simple searches. This new setting is provided for LDAP servers that do not properly support the default Notes LDAP search. The default Notes LDAP search filter OR's five LDAP attributes. These attributes are "cn", "mail", "rfc822mailbox", "givenname", and "sn". Some LDAP servers fail to return any results if one or more of the OR'ed attributes are not contained in their schema. Turning on simple searches compensates for these servers by simplifying the search filter to the one LDAP attribute "cn".
