(9) Exim must be built with TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST support, so that the test
configs can be placed into it. A suitable file location is .../exim/test/trusted_configs
+ with content .../exim/test/test-config [fill out the ... to make full
+ paths]. This file should be owner/group matching CONFIGURE_OWNER/GROUP,
+ or root/root. The config files in .../exim/test/confs/ should be owner/group the same.
DISABLE_D_OPTION must not be used. If ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX is used, it
must contain the directory of the test-suite. WHITELIST_D_MACROS should contain:
(d) If the line starts with ">*eof", nothing is sent and the connection
is closed.
- The data that is sent starts after the initial '>' sequence.
+ The data that is sent starts after the initial '>' sequence. Within
+ each line the sequence '\x' followed by two hex digits can be used
+ to specify an arbitrary byte value. The sequence '\\' specifies a
+ single backslash.
(2) A line that starts with "*sleep" specifies a number of seconds to wait
before proceeding.
(5) Otherwise, the line defines the start of an input line that the client
is expected to send. To allow for lines that start with digits, the line
may start with '<', which is not taken as part of the input data. If the
- input does not match, the server bombs out with an error message.
+ lines starts with '<<' then only the characters are expected; no return-
+ linefeed terminator. If the input does not match, the server bombs out
+ with an error message. Backslash-escape sequences may be used in the
+ line content as for output lines.
Here is a simple example of server use in a test script:
