+For the client to be able to verify the stapled OCSP the server must
+also supply, in its stapled information, any intermediate
+certificates for the chain leading to the OCSP proof from the signer

 At this point in time, we're gathering feedback on use, to determine if
 it's worth adding complexity to the Exim daemon to periodically re-fetch
 OCSP files and somehow handling multiple files.

+  noted this as invalid overall, but the re-fetch script did not.
