The next two lines are concerned with &'ident'& callbacks, as defined by RFC
1413 (hence their names):
.code
-rfc1413_hosts = *
-rfc1413_query_timeout = 5s
+rfc1413_query_hosts = *
+rfc1413_query_timeout = 0s
+.endd
+These settings cause Exim to avoid ident callbacks for all incoming SMTP calls.
+Few hosts offer RFC1413 service these days; calls have to be
+terminated by a timeout and this needlessly delays the startup
+of an incoming SMTP connection.
+If you have hosts for which you trust RFC1413 and need this
+information, you can change this.

+This line enables an efficiency SMTP option. It is negociated by clients
+and not expected to cause problems but can be disabled if needed.

-These settings cause Exim to make ident callbacks for all incoming SMTP calls.
-You can limit the hosts to which these calls are made, or change the timeout
-that is used. If you set the timeout to zero, all ident calls are disabled.
-Although they are cheap and can provide useful information for tracing problem
-messages, some hosts and firewalls have problems with ident calls. This can
-result in a timeout instead of an immediate refused connection, leading to
-delays on starting up an incoming SMTP session.
When Exim receives messages over SMTP connections, it expects all addresses to
be fully qualified with a domain, as required by the SMTP definition. However,

different separator can be specified, as described above.

The &(dnsdb)& lookup fails only if all the DNS lookups fail. If there is a
temporary DNS error for any of them, the behaviour is controlled by
-an optional keyword followed by a comma that may appear before the record
-type. The possible keywords are &"defer_strict"&, &"defer_never"&, and
-&"defer_lax"&. With &"strict"& behaviour, any temporary DNS error causes the
+a defer-option modifier.
+The possible keywords are
+&"defer_strict"&, &"defer_never"&, and &"defer_lax"&.
+With &"strict"& behaviour, any temporary DNS error causes the
whole lookup to defer. With &"never"& behaviour, a temporary DNS error is
ignored, and the behaviour is as if the DNS lookup failed to find anything.
With &"lax"& behaviour, all the queries are attempted, but a temporary DNS
Thus, in the default case, as long as at least one of the DNS lookups
yields some data, the lookup succeeds.

+with the lookup.
+With &"strict"& a response from the DNS resolver that

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
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.
