-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 .

+Limits ESMTP extension
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+Per https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-freed-smtp-limits-01
+(as of 2023/08/04, version -05 has been published.  It does not seems
+to be substantively different.)
+
+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.
+
+
+
+XCLIENT proxy support
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+Per https://www.postfix.org/XCLIENT_README.html
+
+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)
+
+If compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_XCLIENT=yes :-
+
+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
+
