+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 Experimenal 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.
+
+
+
+Limits ESMTP extension
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+Per https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-freed-smtp-limits-01
+
+If compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_ESMTP_LIMITS=yes :-
+
+As a server, Exim will advertise, in the EHLO response, the limit for RCPT
+commands set by the recipients_max main-section config option (if it is set),
+and the limit for MAIL commands set by the smtp_accept_max_per_connection
+option.
+
+Note that as of writing, smtp_accept_max_per_connection is expanded but
+recipients_max is not.
+
+A new main-section option "limits_advertise_hosts" controls whether
+the limits are advertised; the default for the option is "*".
+
+As a client, Exim will:
+
+ - note an advertised MAILMAX; the lower of the value given and the
+ value from the transport connection_max_messages option is used.
+
+ - note an advertised RCPTMAX; the lower of the
+ value given and the value from the transport max_rcpt option is used.
+ Parallisation of transactions is not done if due to a RCPTMAX, unlike
+ max_rcpt.
+
+ - note an advertised RCPTDOMAINMAX, and behave as if the transport
+ multi_domains option was set to false.  The value advertised is ignored.
+
+Values advertised are only noted for TLS connections and ones for which
+the server does not advertise TLS support.
