Further elements are options of form &'name=value'&.
-Two option types is currently recognised: shutdown and tls.
-The first defines whether (the default)
-or not a shutdown is done on the connection after sending the request.
-Example, to not do so (preferred, eg. by some webservers):
+Example:
.code
${readsocket{/socket/name}{request string}{3s:shutdown=no}}

+The following option names are recognised:
+.ilist
+&*cache*&
+Defines if the result data can be cached for use by a later identical

+Values are &"yes"& or &"no"& (the default).
+If not, all cached results for this connection specification

+&*shutdown*&

SMTP messages, if the local part of the original return path ends in

+either &"1"& or &"true"&, Exim will defer. Otherwise Exim will send the message

variables here.
When unspecified, the header names listed in RFC4871 will be used,
whether or not each header is present in the message.

If a name is repeated, multiple headers by that name (or the absence thereof)
will be signed. The textually later headers in the headers part of the
message are signed first, if there are multiples.
-A name can be prefixed with either an '=' or a '+' character.

+A name can be prefixed with either an &"="& or a &"+"& character.
