compilations of the same version of the program.
+.vitem &$config_dir$&
+.vindex "&$config_dir$&"
+The directory name of the main configuration file. That is, the content of
+&$config_file$& with the last component stripped. The value does not

.vitem &$demime_errorlevel$&
.vindex "&$demime_errorlevel$&"
This variable is available when Exim is compiled with
.vindex "&$exim_uid$&"
This variable contains the numerical value of the Exim user id.
+.vitem &$exim_version$&
+.vindex "&$exim_uid$&"
+This variable contains the version string of the Exim build.
+The first character is a major version number, currently 4.
+Then after a dot, the next group of digits is a minor version number.
+There may be other characters following the minor version.

The following scanner types are supported in this release:
.vlist
+.vitem &%avast%&
+.cindex "virus scanners" "avast"
+This is the scanner daemon of Avast. It has been tested with Avast Core
+Security (currenty at version 1.1.7).
+You can get a trial version at &url(http://www.avast.com) or for Linux
+at &url(http://www.avast.com/linux-server-antivirus).
+This scanner type takes one option,
+which can be either a full path to a UNIX socket,
+or host and port specifiers separated by white space.
+The host may be a name or an IP address; the port is either a
+single number or a pair of numbers with a dash between.
+Any further options are given, on separate lines,
+to the daemon as options before the main scan command.
+For example:
+.code
+av_scanner = avast:/var/run/avast/scan.sock:FLAGS -fullfiles:SENSITIVITY -pup
+av_scanner = avast:192.168.2.22 5036
+.endd
+If you omit the argument, the default path
+&_/var/run/avast/scan.sock_&
+is used.
+If you use a remote host,
+you need to make Exim's spool directory available to it,
+as the scanner is passed a file path, not file contents.
+For information about available commands and their options you may use
+.code
+$ socat UNIX:/var/run/avast/scan.sock STDIO:
+ FLAGS
+ SENSITIVITY
+ PACK
+.endd
+
+
.vitem &%aveserver%&
.cindex "virus scanners" "Kaspersky"
This is the scanner daemon of Kaspersky Version 5. You can get a trial version

.vitem &%drweb%&
.cindex "virus scanners" "DrWeb"
-The DrWeb daemon scanner (&url(http://www.sald.com/)) interface takes one
-argument, either a full path to a UNIX socket, or an IP address and port
-separated by white space, as in these examples:
