Only a single host name may be given, but if looking it up yields more than
one IP address, they are each tried in turn until a connection is made. For
both kinds of socket, Exim makes a connection, writes the request string
-(unless it is an empty string) and reads from the socket until an end-of-file
+unless it is an empty string; and no terminating NUL is ever sent)
+and reads from the socket until an end-of-file
is read. A timeout of 5 seconds is applied. Additional, optional arguments
extend what can be done. Firstly, you can vary the timeout. For example:
.code
.row &%bounce_message_file%& "content of bounce"
.row &%bounce_message_text%& "content of bounce"
.row &%bounce_return_body%& "include body if returning message"
+.row &%bounce_return_linesize_limit%& "limit on returned message line length"
.row &%bounce_return_message%& "include original message in bounce"
.row &%bounce_return_size_limit%& "limit on returned message"
.row &%bounce_sender_authentication%& "send authenticated sender with bounce"
point at which the error was detected are returned.
.cindex "bounce message" "including original"
+.option bounce_return_linesize_limit main integer 998
+.cindex "size" "of bounce lines, limit"
+.cindex "bounce message" "line length limit"
+.cindex "limit" "bounce message line length"
+This option sets a limit in bytes on the line length of messages
+that are returned to senders due to delivery problems,
+when &%bounce_return_message%& is true.
+The default value corresponds to RFC limits.
+If the message being returned has lines longer than this value it is
+treated as if the &%bounce_return_size_limit%& (below) restriction was exceeded.
+
+The option also applies to bounces returned when an error is detected
+during reception of a messsage.
+In this case lines from the original are truncated.
+
+The option does not apply to messages generated by an &(autoreply)& transport.
+
+
.option bounce_return_message main boolean true
If this option is set false, none of the original message is included in
bounce messages generated by Exim. See also &%bounce_return_size_limit%& and
transport driver.
-.option openssl_options main "string list" "+no_sslv2"
+.option openssl_options main "string list" "+no_sslv2 +single_dh_use"
.cindex "OpenSSL "compatibility options"
This option allows an administrator to adjust the SSL options applied
by OpenSSL to connections. It is given as a space-separated list of items,
When Exim receives a VRFY or EXPN command on a TCP/IP connection, it
runs the ACL specified by &%acl_smtp_vrfy%& or &%acl_smtp_expn%& (as
appropriate) in order to decide whether the command should be accepted or not.
-If no ACL is defined, the command is rejected.
+.new
.cindex "VRFY" "processing"
+When no ACL is defined for VRFY, or if it rejects without
+setting an explicit response code, the command is accepted
+(with a 252 SMTP response code)
+in order to support awkward clients that do a VRFY before every RCPT.
+.wen
When VRFY is accepted, it runs exactly the same code as when Exim is
-called with the &%-bv%& option.
+called with the &%-bv%& option, and returns 250/451/550
+SMTP response codes.
.cindex "EXPN" "processing"
+If no ACL for EXPN is defined, the command is rejected.
When EXPN is accepted, a single-level expansion of the address is done.
EXPN is treated as an &"address test"& (similar to the &%-bt%& option) rather
than a verification (the &%-bv%& option). If an unqualified local part is given
MANDATORY:
This sets the key selector string. You can use the &%$dkim_domain%& expansion
variable to look up a matching selector. The result is put in the expansion
-variable &%$dkim_selector%& which should be used in the &%dkim_private_key%&
+variable &%$dkim_selector%& which may be used in the &%dkim_private_key%&
option along with &%$dkim_domain%&.
