(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
+ Routers: accept, dnslookup, manualroute, redirect

+ Lookups: lsearch
+ Authenticators: plaintext
Most Exim binaries will have these included.
There are some options for the ./runtest script itself:
+ -CONTINUE This will allow the script to move past some failing tests. It will
+ write a simple failure line with the test number in a temporary
+ logfile test/failed-summary.log. Unexpected exit codes will still
+ stall the test execution and require interaction.
+
-DEBUG This option is for debugging the test script. It causes some
tracing information to be output.
be on by default and you'll see this problem, so make sure your umask is
022 and re-checkout the test/ subdirectory.
+. Some tests will fail if the username and group name are different. It does

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.
+used are coded in the runtest script (look for 'name of munge').
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.
When OpenSSL is available on the host, an alternative version of the client
program is compiled, one that supports TLS using OpenSSL. The additional
-arguments specify a certificate and key file when required. There is one
-additional option, -tls-on-connect, that causes the client to initiate TLS
-negotiation immediately on connection.
+arguments specify a certificate and key file when required for the connection.
+There are two additional options: -tls-on-connect, that causes the client to
+initiate TLS negociation immediately on connection; -ocsp that causes the TLS
+negotiation to include a certificate-status request. The latter takes a
+filename argument, the CA info for verifying the stapled response.

-d causes the server to output debugging information
- -t sets a timeout in seconds (default 5) for when the server is

awaiting an incoming connection
-noipv4 causes the server not to set up an IPv4 socket
-noipv6 causes the server not to set up an IPv6 socket

By default, in an IPv6 environment, both kinds of socket are set up. However,
the test script knows which interfaces actually exist on the host, and it adds
-noipv4 or -noipv6 to the server command as required. An error occurs if both
