EXIM 4 WISH LIST
----------------
22-Apr-04: Implemented for domains, addresses, and local parts. Hosts are
too messy!
+
+The only sensible approach seems to be to allow IP address arguments only.
+Anything else should be diagnosed as an error. However, if a name appears in
+the list, a PTR lookup should be done. This may require a lot of refactoring
+in the code.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(74) 22-Jul-02 M Extend -bV to do more semantic checking
that were longer than 998 bytes. This would be fiddly to implement because of
the way Exim currently reads the input. It isn't just a trivial patch.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---- HWM 308 ------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(309) 01-Dec-04 S/M Queue runners should get locks before forking
+
+If a queue-runner opened the -D file and took out the lock before forking, it
+would waste fewer resources if the message was already being delivered. But how
+often would this actually matter in practice?
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(310) 06-Dec-04 S After "personal" save what matched
+
+The idea is to save the email address that actually was found in the message
+in a variable so it can be used (e.g. as the From: address in an autoreply).
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(311) 07-Dec-04 ? More flexible SMTP response codes
+
+The requestor wanted to be able to specify, for example, 551 in an ACL deny
+instead of 550, and also vary the defer code. The first digit, however, should
+remain fixed. In addition to main codes, enhanced status codes (RFC 2034) were
+requested. (As far as I can tell, they have never been highly popular.)
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(312) 10-Dec-04 ? Shadow remote transports
+
+Unless a lot of work is done, this would be restricted to another remote
+transport. A similar effect could therefore be achieved with "shadow_hosts"
+which are like fallback_hosts but which operate on success.
