The &(dnsdb)& lookup fails only if all the DNS lookups fail. If there is a

Starting with Exim 4.83, the initialization of LDAP with TLS is more tightly
controlled. Every part of the TLS configuration can be configured by settings in
&_exim.conf_&. Depending on the version of the client libraries installed on

&`SIZE `& set the limit for the number of entries returned
&`TIME `& set the maximum waiting time for a query

The TIME parameter (also a number of seconds) is passed to the server to
set a server-side limit on the time taken to complete a search.
+The SERVERS parameter allows you to specify an alternate list of ldap servers
+to use for an individual lookup. The global ldap_servers option provides a
+default list of ldap servers, and a single lookup can specify a single ldap
+server to use. But when you need to do a lookup with a list of servers that is
+different than the default list (maybe different order, maybe a completely
+different set of servers), the SERVERS parameter allows you to specify this
+alternate list.
Here is an example of an LDAP query in an Exim lookup that uses some of these
values. This is a single line, folded to fit on the page:

Certificate issuing authorities issue Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) when
certificates are revoked. If you have such a list, you can pass it to an Exim
server using the global option called &%tls_crl%& and to an Exim client using
an identically named option for the &(smtp)& transport. In each case, the value
of the option is expanded and must then be the name of a file that contains a
CRL in PEM format.
+The downside is that clients have to periodically re-download a potentially huge
+file from every certificate authority the know of.
+
+The way with most moving parts at query time is Online Certificate
+Status Protocol (OCSP), where the client verifies the certificate
+against an OCSP server run by the CA. This lets the CA track all
+usage of the certs. It requires running software with access to the
+private key of the CA, to sign the responses to the OCSP queries. OCSP
+is based on HTTP and can be proxied accordingly.
+
+The only widespread OCSP server implementation (known to this writer)
+comes as part of OpenSSL and aborts on an invalid request, such as
+connecting to the port and then disconnecting. This requires
+re-entering the passphrase each time some random client does this.
+
+The third way is OCSP Stapling; in this, the server using a certificate
+issued by the CA periodically requests an OCSP proof of validity from
+the OCSP server, then serves it up inline as part of the TLS
+negotiation. This approach adds no extra round trips, does not let the
+CA track users, scales well with number of certs issued by the CA and is
+resilient to temporary OCSP server failures, as long as the server
+starts retrying to fetch an OCSP proof some time before its current
+proof expires. The downside is that it requires server support.
+
+Unless Exim is built with the support disabled,
+or with GnuTLS earlier than version 3.1.3,
+support for OCSP stapling is included.
+
+There is a global option called &%tls_ocsp_file%&.
+The file specified therein is expected to be in DER format, and contain
+an OCSP proof. Exim will serve it as part of the TLS handshake. This
+option will be re-expanded for SNI, if the &%tls_certificate%& option
+contains &`tls_in_sni`&, as per other TLS options.
+
+Exim does not at this time implement any support for fetching a new OCSP
+proof. The burden is on the administrator to handle this, outside of
+Exim. The file specified should be replaced atomically, so that the
+contents are always valid. Exim will expand the &%tls_ocsp_file%& option
+on each connection, so a new file will be handled transparently on the
+next connection.
+
+When built with OpenSSL Exim will check for a valid next update timestamp
+in the OCSP proof; if not present, or if the proof has expired, it will be
+ignored.
+
+For the client to be able to verify the stapled OCSP the server must
+also supply, in its stapled information, any intermediate
+certificates for the chain leading to the OCSP proof from the signer
+of the server certificate. There may be zero or one such. These
+intermediate certificates should be added to the server OCSP stapling
+file named by &%tls_ocsp_file%&.
+
+Note that the proof only covers the terminal server certificate,
+not any of the chain from CA to it.
+
+.code
+ A helper script "ocsp_fetch.pl" for fetching a proof from a CA
+ OCSP server is supplied. The server URL may be included in the
+ server certificate, if the CA is helpful.
+
+ One failure mode seen was the OCSP Signer cert expiring before the end
+ of validity of the OCSP proof. The checking done by Exim/OpenSSL
+ noted this as invalid overall, but the re-fetch script did not.

.section "The SMTP DKIM ACL" "SECTDKIMACL"
The &%acl_smtp_dkim%& ACL is available only when Exim is compiled with DKIM support
This ACL is evaluated after &%acl_smtp_dkim%& but before &%acl_smtp_data%&.
+.section "The SMTP PRDR ACL" "SECTPRDRACL"
+.oindex "&%prdr_enable%&"
+The &%acl_smtp_data_prdr%& ACL is available only when Exim is compiled
+with PRDR support enabled (which is the default).
+It becomes active only when the PRDR feature is negotiated between
+client and server for a message, and more than one recipient
+has been accepted.
+
+The ACL test specfied by &%acl_smtp_data_prdr%& happens after a message
+has been recieved, and is executed for each recipient of the message.
+The test may accept or deny for inividual recipients.
+The &%acl_smtp_data%& will still be called after this ACL and
+can reject the message overall, even if this ACL has accepted it
+for some or all recipients.
+
+PRDR may be used to support per-user content filtering. Without it
+one must defer any recipient after the first that has a different
+content-filter configuration. With PRDR, the RCPT-time check
+for this can be disabled when the MAIL-time $smtp_command included
+"PRDR". Any required difference in behaviour of the main DATA-time
+ACL should however depend on the PRDR-time ACL having run, as Exim
+will avoid doing so in some situations (eg. single-recipient mails).
+
+See also the &%prdr_enable%& global option
+and the &%hosts_try_prdr%& smtp transport option.
+
+This ACL is evaluated after &%acl_smtp_dkim%& but before &%acl_smtp_data%&.
+If the ACL is not defined, processing completes as if
+the feature was not requested by the client.

The ACL for the SMTP QUIT command is anomalous, in that the outcome of the ACL

Exim itself will handle headers with non-ASCII characters, but it can cause
problems for downstream applications, so this option will allow their
detection and rejection in the DATA ACL's.
