(5) Exim must be built with its user and group specified at build time, and
with certain minimum facilities, namely:
- Routers: accept, dnslookup, manualroute, redirect
- Transports: appendfile, autoreply, pipe, smtp
- Lookups: lsearch

Most Exim binaries will have these included.

OTHER SCRIPTS AND PROGRAMS
--------------------------
"write" command (see below) that creates the input file.
- dumpdb <dbname>
+ dump <dbname>
This command runs the exim_dumpdb utility on the testing spool directory, using
the database name given, for example: "dumpdb retry".
munge <name>
This command requests custom munging of the test outputs. The munge names
-used are coded in the runtest script.

need_ipv4
It is controlled by a script read from its standard input, details of which are
given below. There are two options. One is -t, which must be followed directly
by a number, to specify the command timeout in seconds (e.g. -t5). The default
-timeout is 1 second. The other option is -tls-on-connect, which causes the
+timeout is 5 seconds. The other option is -tls-on-connect, which causes the
client to try to start up a TLS session as soon as it has connected, without
using the STARTTLS command. The client program connects to the given IP address
and port, using the specified interface, if one is given.
