The options for ./runtest must be given first (but after the name of the
binary, if present). Any further options, that is, items on the command line
that start with a hyphen, are passed to the Exim binary when it is run as part
line is input to be sent to the server. Backslash escaping is done as
described below, but no trailing "\r\n" is sent.

occurrences of \r and \n in the line are turned into carriage return and
linefeed, respectively. This is used for testing PIPELINING.
Any sequences of \x followed by two hex digits are converted to the equvalent
byte value. Any other character following a \ is sent verbatim.
