and must be present if the argument is given.

+Two option types is currently recognised: shutdown and tls.

or not a shutdown is done on the connection after sending the request.
Example, to not do so (preferred, eg. by some webservers):
.code

.endd

+The second, tls, controls the use of TLS on the connection. Example:
+.code

+The default is to not use TLS.
+If it is enabled, a shutdown as descripbed above is never done.

A fourth argument allows you to change any newlines that are in the data
that is read, in the same way as for &%readfile%& (see above). This example
turns them into spaces:
For TLS version 1.3 the control available is less fine-grained
and Exim does not provide access to it at present.
The value of the &%tls_require_ciphers%& option is ignored when

-To use Rspamd (which by default listens on all local addresses

-.code
-spamd_address = 127.0.0.1 11333 variant=rspamd

As of version 2.60, &%SpamAssassin%& also supports communication over UNIX
sockets. If you want to us these, supply &%spamd_address%& with an absolute
file name instead of an address/port pair:
relevant if you have set up multiple SpamAssassin profiles. If you do not want
to scan using a specific profile, but rather use the SpamAssassin system-wide
default profile, you can scan for an unknown name, or simply use &"nobody"&.
