I do not have this in my configuration, and dovecot does indeed use the
credential I provide to successfully query LDAP for the user based on
the (mail=%u) criteria. However, it does not see the reply.
The fact that it does perform the query successfully implies to me that
it does not use an anonymous connection. Very puzzling.
