-SRS (Sender Rewriting Scheme) Support (using libsrs_alt)
---------------------------------------------------------------
-See also the main docs, for an alternative native support implementation.
-
-Exim can be built with SRS support using 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_ALT=yes
-
-in your Local/Makefile.
-
-The built-in support, included by SUPPORT_SRS,
-shuold *not* be enabled if you wish to use the libsrs_alt
-version.
-
-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 .

-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.
+Logging protocol unusual states
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+An extra log_selector, "protocol_detail" has been added in the default build.
+The name may change in future, hence the Experimental status.
+
+Currrently the only effect is to enable logging, under TLS,
+of a TCP RST received directly after a QUIT (in server mode).
+
+Outlook is consistently doing this; not waiting for the SMTP response
+to its QUIT, not properly closing the TLS session and not properly closing
+the TCP connection.  Previously this resulted is an error from SSL_write
+being logged.
+
+
+
+XCLIENT proxy support
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+Per https://www.postfix.org/XCLIENT_README.html

 
 

-This is incompatible with queue_run_in_order.
+XCLIENT is an ESMTP extension supporting an inbound proxy.
+The only client immplementation known is in Nginx
+(https://nginx.org/en/docs/mail/ngx_mail_proxy_module.html)

 
 

-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.
+If compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_XCLIENT=yes :-

 
 

-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.
+As a server, Exim will advertise XCLIENT support (conditional on a new option
+"hosts_xclient") and service XCLIENT commands with parameters
+  ADDR
+  NAME
+  PORT
+  LOGIN
+  DESTADDR
+  DESTPORT
+A fresh HELO/EHLO is required after a succesful XCLIENT, and the usual
+values are derived from that (making the HELO and PROTO paramemters redundant).

 
 

+An XCLIENT command must give both ADDR and PORT parameters if no previous
+XCLIENT has succeeded in the SMTP session.

 
 

+After a success:
+  $proxy_session variable becomes "yes"
+  $proxy_local_address, $proxy_local_port have the proxy "inside" values
+  $proxy_external_address, $proxy_external_port have the proxy "outside" values
+  $sender_host_address, $sender_host_port have the remot client values
