1 LISTS OF EXIM OPTIONS
2 ---------------------
3
4 This file contains complete lists of four kinds of Exim option:
5
6   1. Those that can appear in the run time configuration file;
7   2. Those that can be used on the command line;
8   3. Those that can appear in the build time configuration (Local/Makefile);
9   4. Those that can appear in the build time configuration for the Exim monitor
10      (Local/eximon.conf).
11
12 This file was last updated for Exim release 4.72.
13
14
15 1. RUN TIME OPTIONS
16 -------------------
17
18 As Exim has developed, new options have been added at each major release. For
19 the most part, backwards compatibility has been maintained, and obsolete
20 options continue to be recognized. However, incompatible changes took place at
21 releases 3.00, and 4.00. In both cases, several groups of options were
22 amalgamated into new, extended options, and obsolete options were removed.
23
24 The table below contains a complete list of all Exim's current options, along
25 with their types, default values, and where they can be used. String options
26 that are expanded before use are marked with *. Host lists, domain lists, and
27 address lists are always expanded. In some cases the defaults are not fixed
28 values, or not short enough to fit in the table. These are indicated by +. Some
29 other default values are determined when the Exim binary is compiled; these are
30 indicated by ++.
31
32 For options that are specific to a particular driver, the fourth column
33 contains the driver name, for example, appendfile. Otherwise, it contains
34
35  . `main' for options that appear in the main section of Exim's configuration
36     file;
37
38  . `authenticators' for generic options that apply to any authenticator;
39
40  . `routers' for generic options that apply to any router;
41
42  . `transports' for generic options that apply to any transport.
43
44 The fifth column contains the version of Exim in which the option was added, or
45 substantially changed. Where no number is given, the option has been in Exim
46 since the very early releases. The routers were completely reorganised for
47 release 4.00, and so no router options are shown as earlier than 4.00, though
48 in fact some of them were inherited from earlier versions.

810  . `optional' means what it says;
811
812 Those marked with * are specialized and are unlikely to be required in most
813 installations. Those that are marked with ** are commonly set in OS-specific
814 Makefiles. If you use any of these in your Local/Makefile, you may need to
815 reproduce some of the OS-specific settings. For example, in the Makefile for
816 Solaris (which is actually called OS/Makefile-SunOS5), there is
817
818   LIBS=-lsocket -lnsl -lkstat
819
820 If you use LIBS to add extra libraries, you must also include the OS ones in
821 your setting. It is better, in this particular case, to use EXTRALIBS, which is
822 empty by default, and is provided for just this reason. Of course, if you do
823 actually want to modify a setting from the OS-specific file, there is nothing
824 to stop you overriding it in your Local/Makefile.
825
826 When building Exim with dynamically loaded lookup support, for "LOOKUP_FOO",
827 you can define "LOOKUP_FOO_INCLUDE" and "LOOKUP_FOO_LIBS", for includes and
828 libraries specific only to that module.  These rules are only used where the
829 relevant lookup is a module.  These options are not explicitly listed below.
830
831 Variables with names endined `_PC' are used for pkg-config integration; setting
832 the value to the name of a pkg-config package will cause Exim's build system to
833 query the --cflags and --libs for the given name, when building anything
834 dependent upon the component associated with the `_PC' variable.  For lookups,
835 if the lookup is dynamically loaded, then this *replaces* the use of the
836 corresponding _INCLUDE and _LIBS options, which will be ignored.  If the lookup
837 is statically loaded into Exim, the results will be inserted into the
838 "LOOKUP_INCLUDE" and "LOOKUP_LIBS" options.  For authenticator, the results
839 will be inserted into the "CFLAGS" and "AUTH_LIBS" options.  These options are
840 only listed below for the TLS implementation cases.

1022
1023 The table below contains a complete list of options that can be set in
1024 Local/eximon.conf when building the Exim monitor. Where the default is shown as
1025 ** it means that the text string is too long to fit in the table and is instead
1026 given below. A blank default means that there is no default value.
1027

1064
1065 That is, there are four stripcharts, named in, out, local, and smtp. The first
1066 counts message arrivals, the second counts all deliveries, the third counts
1067 deliveries where the router's name starts with "local", and the fourth counts
1068 deliveries where the transport name contains "smtp".
