-SRS (Sender Rewriting Scheme) Support (using libsrs_alt)
---------------------------------------------------------------
-See also below, for an alternative native support implementation.
-
-Exim currently includes SRS support via Miles Wilton's
-libsrs_alt library. The current version of the supported
-library is 0.5, there are reports of 1.0 working.
-
-In order to use SRS, you must get a copy of libsrs_alt from
-
-https://opsec.eu/src/srs/
-
-(not the original source, which has disappeared.)
-
-Unpack the tarball, then refer to MTAs/README.EXIM
-to proceed. You need to set
-
-EXPERIMENTAL_SRS=yes
-
-in your Local/Makefile.
-
-The following main-section options become available:
- srs_config string
- srs_hashlength int
- srs_hashmin int
- srs_maxage int
- srs_secrets string
- srs_usehash bool
- srs_usetimestamp bool
-
-The redirect router gains these options (all of type string, unset by default):
- srs
- srs_alias
- srs_condition
- srs_dbinsert
- srs_dbselect
-
-The following variables become available:
- $srs_db_address
- $srs_db_key
- $srs_orig_recipient
- $srs_orig_sender
- $srs_recipient
- $srs_status
-
-The predefined feature-macro _HAVE_SRS will be present.
-Additional delivery log line elements, tagged with "SRS=" will show the srs sender.
-For configuration information see https://github.com/Exim/exim/wiki/SRS .

SRS (Sender Rewriting Scheme) Support (native)
--------------------------------------------------------------
-This is less full-featured than the libsrs_alt version above.
+This is less full-featured than the libsrs_alt version below.
The Exim build needs to be done with this in Local/Makefile:
EXPERIMENTAL_SRS_NATIVE=yes
Sample usage:
#macro
- SRS_SECRET = <pick something unique for your site for this>
+ SRS_SECRET = <pick something unique for your site for this. Use on all MXs.>

DCC Support
--------------------------------------------------------------
Distributed Checksum Clearinghouse; http://www.rhyolite.com/dcc/
hosts_require_ocsp will fail
+
+Dovecot authenticator via inet socket
+------------------------------------
+If Dovecot is configured similar to :-
+
+service auth {
+...
+#SASL
+ inet_listener {
+ name = exim
+ port = 12345
+ }
+...
+}
+
+then an Exim authenticator can be configured :-
+
+ dovecot-plain:
+ driver = dovecot
+ public_name = PLAIN
+ server_socket = dovecot_server_name 12345
+ server_tls = true
+ server_set_id = $auth1
+
+If the server_socket does not start with a / it is taken as a hostname (or IP);
+and a whitespace-separated port number must be given.
+
+
+
+Twophase queue run fast ramp
+----------------------------
+To include this feature, add to Local/Makefile:
+ EXPERIMENTAL_QUEUE_RAMP=yes
+
+If the (added for this feature) main-section option "queue_fast_ramp" (boolean)
+is set, and a two-phase ("-qq") queue run finds, during the first phase, a
+suitably large number of message routed for a given host - then (subject to
+the usual queue-runner resource limits) delivery for that host is initiated
+immediately, overlapping with the remainder of the first phase.
+
+This is incompatible with queue_run_in_order.
+
+The result should be a faster startup of deliveries when a large queue is
+present and reasonable numbers of messages are routed to common hosts; this
+could be a smarthost case, or delivery onto the Internet where a large proportion
+of recipients hapen to be on a Gorilla-sized provider.
+
+As usual, the presence of a configuration option is associated with a
+predefined macro, making it possible to write portable configurations.
+For this one, the macro is _OPT_MAIN_QUEUE_FAST_RAMP.
