Hey MNabeel,

 

very roughly, you need to configure the following:

- an LDAP profile
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimail/7.2.0/administration-guide/666946/configuring-ldap-profiles

- an administrator account of type LDAP
https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimail/7.2.0/administration-guide/347528/configuring-administrator-accounts-and-access-profiles#system_1547103484_3230813
-> you can allow LDAP attributes to specify the admin profile (this can be enabled in the LDAP profile, https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimail/7.2.0/administration-guide/666946/configuring-ldap-profiles#profile_2424801504_2509919)
Please let us know at what stage you're running into issues so we can provide more detailed steps if necessary
