-Brightmail AntiSpam (BMI) suppport
+Brightmail AntiSpam (BMI) support
--------------------------------------------------------------
Brightmail AntiSpam is a commercial package. Please see
1) Adding support for BMI at compile time
To compile with BMI support, you need to link Exim against
- the Brighmail client SDK, consisting of a library
+ the Brightmail client SDK, consisting of a library
(libbmiclient_single.so) and a header file (bmi_api.h).
You'll also need to explicitly set a flag in the Makefile to
include BMI support in the Exim binary. Both can be achieved
-Sender Policy Framework (SPF) support
---------------------------------------------------------------
-
-To learn more about SPF, visit http://www.openspf.org. This
-document does not explain the SPF fundamentals, you should
-read and understand the implications of deploying SPF on your
-system before doing so.
-
-SPF support is added via the libspf2 library. Visit
-
- http://www.libspf2.org/
-
-to obtain a copy, then compile and install it. By default,
-this will put headers in /usr/local/include and the static
-library in /usr/local/lib.
-
-To compile Exim with SPF support, set these additional flags in
-Local/Makefile:
-
-EXPERIMENTAL_SPF=yes
-CFLAGS=-DSPF -I/usr/local/include
-EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-L/usr/local/lib -lspf2
-
-This assumes that the libspf2 files are installed in
-their default locations.
-
-You can now run SPF checks in incoming SMTP by using the "spf"
-ACL condition in either the MAIL, RCPT or DATA ACLs. When
-using it in the RCPT ACL, you can make the checks dependent on
-the RCPT address (or domain), so you can check SPF records
-only for certain target domains. This gives you the
-possibility to opt-out certain customers that do not want
-their mail to be subject to SPF checking.
-
-The spf condition takes a list of strings on its right-hand
-side. These strings describe the outcome of the SPF check for
-which the spf condition should succeed. Valid strings are:
-
- o pass The SPF check passed, the sending host
- is positively verified by SPF.
- o fail The SPF check failed, the sending host
- is NOT allowed to send mail for the domain
- in the envelope-from address.
- o softfail The SPF check failed, but the queried
- domain can't absolutely confirm that this
- is a forgery.
- o none The queried domain does not publish SPF
- records.
- o neutral The SPF check returned a "neutral" state.
- This means the queried domain has published
- a SPF record, but wants to allow outside
- servers to send mail under its domain as well.
- This should be treated like "none".
- o permerror This indicates a syntax error in the SPF
- record of the queried domain. You may deny
- messages when this occurs. (Changed in 4.83)
- o temperror This indicates a temporary error during all
- processing, including Exim's SPF processing.
- You may defer messages when this occurs.
- (Changed in 4.83)
- o err_temp Same as permerror, deprecated in 4.83, will be
- removed in a future release.
- o err_perm Same as temperror, deprecated in 4.83, will be
- removed in a future release.
-
-You can prefix each string with an exclamation mark to invert
-its meaning, for example "!fail" will match all results but
-"fail". The string list is evaluated left-to-right, in a
-short-circuit fashion. When a string matches the outcome of
-the SPF check, the condition succeeds. If none of the listed
-strings matches the outcome of the SPF check, the condition
-fails.
-
-Here is an example to fail forgery attempts from domains that
-publish SPF records:
-
-/* -----------------
-deny message = $sender_host_address is not allowed to send mail from ${if def:sender_address_domain {$sender_address_domain}{$sender_helo_name}}. \
- Please see http://www.openspf.org/Why?scope=${if def:sender_address_domain {mfrom}{helo}};identity=${if def:sender_address_domain {$sender_address}{$sender_helo_name}};ip=$sender_host_address
- spf = fail
---------------------- */
-
-You can also give special treatment to specific domains:
-
-/* -----------------
-deny message = AOL sender, but not from AOL-approved relay.
- sender_domains = aol.com
- spf = fail:neutral
---------------------- */
-
-Explanation: AOL publishes SPF records, but is liberal and
-still allows non-approved relays to send mail from aol.com.
-This will result in a "neutral" state, while mail from genuine
-AOL servers will result in "pass". The example above takes
-this into account and treats "neutral" like "fail", but only
-for aol.com. Please note that this violates the SPF draft.
-
-When the spf condition has run, it sets up several expansion
-variables.
-
- $spf_header_comment
- This contains a human-readable string describing the outcome
- of the SPF check. You can add it to a custom header or use
- it for logging purposes.
-
- $spf_received
- This contains a complete Received-SPF: header that can be
- added to the message. Please note that according to the SPF
- draft, this header must be added at the top of the header
- list. Please see section 10 on how you can do this.
-
- Note: in case of "Best-guess" (see below), the convention is
- to put this string in a header called X-SPF-Guess: instead.
-
- $spf_result
- This contains the outcome of the SPF check in string form,
- one of pass, fail, softfail, none, neutral, permerror or
- temperror.
-
- $spf_smtp_comment
- This contains a string that can be used in a SMTP response
- to the calling party. Useful for "fail".
-
-In addition to SPF, you can also perform checks for so-called
-"Best-guess". Strictly speaking, "Best-guess" is not standard
-SPF, but it is supported by the same framework that enables SPF
-capability. Refer to http://www.openspf.org/FAQ/Best_guess_record
-for a description of what it means.
-
-To access this feature, simply use the spf_guess condition in place
-of the spf one. For example:
-
-/* -----------------
-deny message = $sender_host_address doesn't look trustworthy to me
- spf_guess = fail
---------------------- */
-
-In case you decide to reject messages based on this check, you
-should note that although it uses the same framework, "Best-guess"
-is NOT SPF, and therefore you should not mention SPF at all in your
-reject message.
-
-When the spf_guess condition has run, it sets up the same expansion
-variables as when spf condition is run, described above.
-
-Additionally, since Best-guess is not standardized, you may redefine
-what "Best-guess" means to you by redefining spf_guess variable in
-global config. For example, the following:
-
-/* -----------------
-spf_guess = v=spf1 a/16 mx/16 ptr ?all
---------------------- */
-
-would relax host matching rules to a broader network range.
-
-
-A lookup expansion is also available. It takes an email
-address as the key and an IP address as the database:
-
- $lookup (username@domain} spf {ip.ip.ip.ip}}
-
-The lookup will return the same result strings as they can appear in
-$spf_result (pass,fail,softfail,neutral,none,err_perm,err_temp).
-Currently, only IPv4 addresses are supported.
-
-
-
SRS (Sender Rewriting Scheme) Support
--------------------------------------------------------------
Exiscan currently includes SRS support via Miles Wilton's
libsrs_alt library. The current version of the supported
-library is 0.5.
+library is 0.5, there are reports of 1.0 working.
In order to use SRS, you must get a copy of libsrs_alt from
-http://srs.mirtol.com/
+https://opsec.eu/src/srs/
+
+(not the original source, which has disappeared.)
Unpack the tarball, then refer to MTAs/README.EXIM
to proceed. You need to set
in your Local/Makefile.
+
DCC Support

DMARC Support
--------------------------------------------------------------
are in /usr/local/lib.
1. To compile Exim with DMARC support, you must first enable SPF.
-Please read the above section on enabling the EXPERIMENTAL_SPF
+Please read the Local/Makefile comments on enabling the SUPPORT_SPF
feature. You must also have DKIM support, so you cannot set the
DISABLE_DKIM feature. Once both of those conditions have been met
you can enable DMARC in Local/Makefile:
supports, including LDAP, Postgres, MySQL, etc, as long as the
result is a list of colon-separated strings.
+Performing the check sets up information used by the
+${authresults } expansion item.
+
Several expansion variables are set before the DATA ACL is
processed, and you can use them in this ACL. The following
expansion variables are available:
are "none", "reject" and "quarantine". It is blank when there
is any error, including no DMARC record.
- o $dmarc_ar_header
- This is the entire Authentication-Results header which you can
- add using an add_header modifier.
+A now-redundant variable $dmarc_ar_header has now been withdrawn.
+Use the ${authresults } expansion instead.
5. How to enable DMARC advanced operation:
warn dmarc_status = accept : none : off
!authenticated = *
log_message = DMARC DEBUG: $dmarc_status $dmarc_used_domain
- add_header = $dmarc_ar_header
warn dmarc_status = !accept
!authenticated = *
!authenticated = *
message = Message from $dmarc_used_domain failed sender's DMARC policy, REJECT
+ warn add_header = :at_start:${authresults {$primary_hostname}}
-Event Actions
---------------------------------------------------------------
-
-(Renamed from TPDA, Transport post-delivery actions)
-
-An arbitrary per-transport string can be expanded upon various transport events.
-Additionally a main-section configuration option can be expanded on some
-per-message events.
-This feature may be used, for example, to write exim internal log information
-(not available otherwise) into a database.
-
-In order to use the feature, you must compile with
-
-EXPERIMENTAL_EVENT=yes
-
-in your Local/Makefile
-
-and define one or both of
-- the event_action option in the transport
-- the event_action main option
-to be expanded when the event fires.
-
-A new variable, $event_name, is set to the event type when the
-expansion is done. The current list of events is:
-
- msg:complete after main per message
- msg:delivery after transport per recipient
- msg:rcpt:host:defer after transport per recipient per host
- msg:rcpt:defer after transport per recipient
- msg:host:defer after transport per attempt
- msg:fail:delivery after main per recipient
- msg:fail:internal after main per recipient
- tcp:connect before transport per connection
- tcp:close after transport per connection
- tls:cert before both per certificate in verification chain
- smtp:connect after transport per connection
-
-The expansion is called for all event types, and should use the $event_name
-variable to decide when to act. The value of the variable is a colon-separated
-list, defining a position in the tree of possible events; it may be used as
-a list or just matched on as a whole. There will be no whitespace.
-
-New event types may be added in the future.
-
-
-There is an auxilary variable, $event_data, for which the
-content is event_dependent:
-
- msg:delivery smtp confirmation mssage
- msg:rcpt:host:defer error string
- msg:rcpt:defer error string
- msg:host:defer error string
- tls:cert verification chain depth
- smtp:connect smtp banner
-
-The :defer events populate one extra variable, $event_defer_errno.
-
-The following variables are likely to be useful depending on the event type:
-
- router_name, transport_name
- local_part, domain
- host, host_address, host_port
- tls_out_peercert
- lookup_dnssec_authenticated, tls_out_dane
- sending_ip_address, sending_port
- message_exim_id, verify_mode
-
-
-An example might look like:
-
-event_action = ${if eq {msg:delivery}{$event_name} \
-{${lookup pgsql {SELECT * FROM record_Delivery( \
- '${quote_pgsql:$sender_address_domain}',\
- '${quote_pgsql:${lc:$sender_address_local_part}}', \
- '${quote_pgsql:$domain}', \
- '${quote_pgsql:${lc:$local_part}}', \
- '${quote_pgsql:$host_address}', \
- '${quote_pgsql:${lc:$host}}', \
- '${quote_pgsql:$message_exim_id}')}} \
-} {}}
-
-The string is expanded when each of the supported events occur
-and any side-effects of the expansion will happen.
-
-Note that for complex operations an ACL expansion can be used,
-however due to the multiple contexts the Exim operates in
-a) variables set in events raised from transports will not
- be visible outside that transport call.
-b) acl_m variables in a server context are lost on a new connection,
- and after helo/ehlo/mail/starttls/rset commands
-Using an ACL expansion with the logwrite modifier can be a
-useful way of writing to the main log.
-
+DSN extra information
+---------------------
+If compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_DSN_INFO extra information will be added
+to DSN fail messages ("bounces"), when available. The intent is to aid
+tracing of specific failing messages, when presented with a "bounce"
+complaint and needing to search logs.
-The expansion of the event_action option should normally
-return an empty string. Should it return anything else the
-following will be forced:
- msg:delivery (ignored)
- msg:host:defer (ignored)
- msg:fail:delivery (ignored)
- tcp:connect do not connect
- tcp:close (ignored)
- tls:cert refuse verification
- smtp:connect close connection
+The remote MTA IP address, with port number if nonstandard.
+Example:
+ Remote-MTA: X-ip; [127.0.0.1]:587
+Rationale:
+ Several addresses may correspond to the (already available)
+ dns name for the remote MTA.
-No other use is made of the result string.
+The remote MTA connect-time greeting.
+Example:
+ X-Remote-MTA-smtp-greeting: X-str; 220 the.local.host.name ESMTP Exim x.yz Tue, 2 Mar 1999 09:44:33 +0000
+Rationale:
+ This string sometimes presents the remote MTA's idea of its
+ own name, and sometimes identifies the MTA software.
-If transport proxying is used, the remote IP/port during a
-tcp:connect event will be that of the proxy.
+The remote MTA response to HELO or EHLO.
+Example:
+ X-Remote-MTA-helo-response: X-str; 250-the.local.host.name Hello localhost [127.0.0.1]
+Limitations:
+ Only the first line of a multiline response is recorded.
+Rationale:
+ This string sometimes presents the remote MTA's view of
+ the peer IP connecting to it.
+The reporting MTA detailed diagnostic.
+Example:
+ X-Exim-Diagnostic: X-str; SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<d3@myhost.test.ex>: 550 hard error
+Rationale:
+ This string sometimes give extra information over the
+ existing (already available) Diagnostic-Code field.
-Known issues:
-- the tls:cert event is only called for the cert chain elements
- received over the wire, with GnuTLS. OpenSSL gives the entire
- chain including those loaded locally.
+Note that non-RFC-documented field names and data types are used.
-Redis Lookup
---------------------------------------------------------------
-Redis is open source advanced key-value data store. This document
-does not explain the fundamentals, you should read and understand how
-it works by visiting the website at http://www.redis.io/.
+LMDB Lookup support
+-------------------
+LMDB is an ultra-fast, ultra-compact, crash-proof key-value embedded data store.
+It is modeled loosely on the BerkeleyDB API. You should read about the feature
+set as well as operation modes at https://symas.com/products/lightning-memory-mapped-database/
-Redis lookup support is added via the hiredis library. Visit:
+LMDB single key lookup support is provided by linking to the LMDB C library.
+The current implementation does not support writing to the LMDB database.
- https://github.com/redis/hiredis
+Visit https://github.com/LMDB/lmdb to download the library or find it in your

-to obtain a copy, or find it in your operating systems package repository.
If building from source, this description assumes that headers will be in
/usr/local/include, and that the libraries are in /usr/local/lib.

+2. Create your LMDB files, you can use the mdb_load utility which is
+part of the LMDB distribution our your favourite language bindings.
-2. Use the following global settings to configure Redis lookup support:
+3. Add the single key lookups to your exim.conf file, example lookups
+are below.
-Required:
-redis_servers This option provides a list of Redis servers
- and associated connection data, to be used in
- conjunction with redis lookups. The option is
- only available if Exim is configured with Redis
- support.
-
-For example:
-
-redis_servers = 127.0.0.1/10/ - using database 10 with no password
-redis_servers = 127.0.0.1//password - to make use of the default database of 0 with a password
-redis_servers = 127.0.0.1// - for default database of 0 with no password
-
-3. Once you have the Redis servers defined you can then make use of the
-experimental Redis lookup by specifying ${lookup redis{}} in a lookup query.
-
-4. Example usage:
-
-(Host List)
-hostlist relay_from_ips = <\n ${lookup redis{SMEMBERS relay_from_ips}}
-
-Where relay_from_ips is a Redis set which contains entries such as "192.168.0.0/24" "10.0.0.0/8" and so on.
-The result set is returned as
-192.168.0.0/24
-10.0.0.0/8
-..
-.
-
-(Domain list)
-domainlist virtual_domains = ${lookup redis {HGET $domain domain}}
-
-Where $domain is a hash which includes the key 'domain' and the value '$domain'.
-
-(Adding or updating an existing key)
-set acl_c_spammer = ${if eq{${lookup redis{SPAMMER_SET}}}{OK}}
-
-Where SPAMMER_SET is a macro and it is defined as
-
-"SET SPAMMER <some_value>"
-
-(Getting a value from Redis)
-
-set acl_c_spam_host = ${lookup redis{GET...}}
-
-
-DANE
-------------------------------------------------------------
-DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities, as applied
-to SMTP over TLS, provides assurance to a client that
-it is actually talking to the server it wants to rather
-than some attacker operating a Man In The Middle (MITM)
-operation. The latter can terminate the TLS connection
-you make, and make another one to the server (so both
-you and the server still think you have an encrypted
-connection) and, if one of the "well known" set of
-Certificate Authorities has been suborned - something
-which *has* been seen already (2014), a verifiable
-certificate (if you're using normal root CAs, eg. the
-Mozilla set, as your trust anchors).
-
-What DANE does is replace the CAs with the DNS as the
-trust anchor. The assurance is limited to a) the possibility
-that the DNS has been suborned, b) mistakes made by the
-admins of the target server. The attack surface presented
-by (a) is thought to be smaller than that of the set
-of root CAs.
-
-It also allows the server to declare (implicitly) that
-connections to it should use TLS. An MITM could simply
-fail to pass on a server's STARTTLS.
-
-DANE scales better than having to maintain (and
-side-channel communicate) copies of server certificates
-for every possible target server. It also scales
-(slightly) better than having to maintain on an SMTP
-client a copy of the standard CAs bundle. It also
-means not having to pay a CA for certificates.
-
-DANE requires a server operator to do three things:
-1) run DNSSEC. This provides assurance to clients
-that DNS lookups they do for the server have not
-been tampered with. The domain MX record applying
-to this server, its A record, its TLSA record and
-any associated CNAME records must all be covered by
-DNSSEC.
-2) add TLSA DNS records. These say what the server
-certificate for a TLS connection should be.
-3) offer a server certificate, or certificate chain,
-in TLS connections which is traceable to the one
-defined by (one of?) the TSLA records
-
-There are no changes to Exim specific to server-side
-operation of DANE.
-
-The TLSA record for the server may have "certificate
-usage" of DANE-TA(2) or DANE-EE(3). The latter specifies
-the End Entity directly, i.e. the certificate involved
-is that of the server (and should be the sole one transmitted
-during the TLS handshake); this is appropriate for a
-single system, using a self-signed certificate.
- DANE-TA usage is effectively declaring a specific CA
-to be used; this might be a private CA or a public,
-well-known one. A private CA at simplest is just
-a self-signed certificate which is used to sign
-cerver certificates, but running one securely does
-require careful arrangement. If a private CA is used
-then either all clients must be primed with it, or
-(probably simpler) the server TLS handshake must transmit
-the entire certificate chain from CA to server-certificate.
-If a public CA is used then all clients must be primed with it
-(losing one advantage of DANE) - but the attack surface is
-reduced from all public CAs to that single CA.
-DANE-TA is commonly used for several services and/or
-servers, each having a TLSA query-domain CNAME record,
-all of which point to a single TLSA record.
-
-The TLSA record should have a Selector field of SPKI(1)
-and a Matching Type field of SHA2-512(2).
-
-At the time of writing, https://www.huque.com/bin/gen_tlsa
-is useful for quickly generating TLSA records; and commands like
-
- openssl x509 -in -pubkey -noout <certificate.pem \
- | openssl rsa -outform der -pubin 2>/dev/null \
- | openssl sha512 \
- | awk '{print $2}'
-
-are workable for 4th-field hashes.
-
-For use with the DANE-TA model, server certificates
-must have a correct name (SubjectName or SubjectAltName).
-
-The use of OCSP-stapling should be considered, allowing
-for fast revocation of certificates (which would otherwise
-be limited by the DNS TTL on the TLSA records). However,
-this is likely to only be usable with DANE-TA. NOTE: the
-default of requesting OCSP for all hosts is modified iff
-DANE is in use, to:
-
- hosts_request_ocsp = ${if or { {= {0}{$tls_out_tlsa_usage}} \
- {= {4}{$tls_out_tlsa_usage}} } \
- {*}{}}
-
-The (new) variable $tls_out_tlsa_usage is a bitfield with
-numbered bits set for TLSA record usage codes.
-The zero above means DANE was not in use,
-the four means that only DANE-TA usage TLSA records were
-found. If the definition of hosts_request_ocsp includes the
-string "tls_out_tlsa_usage", they are re-expanded in time to
-control the OCSP request.
-
-This modification of hosts_request_ocsp is only done if
-it has the default value of "*". Admins who change it, and
-those who use hosts_require_ocsp, should consider the interaction
-with DANE in their OCSP settings.
-
-
-For client-side DANE there are two new smtp transport options,
-hosts_try_dane and hosts_require_dane. They do the obvious thing.
-[ should they be domain-based rather than host-based? ]
-
-DANE will only be usable if the target host has DNSSEC-secured
-MX, A and TLSA records.
-
-A TLSA lookup will be done if either of the above options match
-and the host-lookup succeded using dnssec.
-If a TLSA lookup is done and succeeds, a DANE-verified TLS connection
-will be required for the host.
-
-(TODO: specify when fallback happens vs. when the host is not used)
-
-If DANE is requested and useable (see above) the following transport
-options are ignored:
- hosts_require_tls
- tls_verify_hosts
- tls_try_verify_hosts
- tls_verify_certificates
- tls_crl
- tls_verify_cert_hostnames
-
-If DANE is not usable, whether requested or not, and CA-anchored
-verification evaluation is wanted, the above variables should be set
-appropriately.
-
-Currently dnssec_request_domains must be active (need to think about that)
-and dnssec_require_domains is ignored.
-
-If verification was successful using DANE then the "CV" item
-in the delivery log line will show as "CV=dane".
-
-There is a new variable $tls_out_dane which will have "yes" if
-verification succeeded using DANE and "no" otherwise (only useful
-in combination with EXPERIMENTAL_EVENT), and a new variable
-$tls_out_tlsa_usage (detailed above).

-SMTPUTF8
-Internationalised mail name handling.
-RFCs 6530, 6533, 5890
+${lookup{$sender_address_domain}lmdb{/var/lib/baruwa/data/db/relaydomains.mdb}{$value}}
+${lookup{$sender_address_domain}lmdb{/var/lib/baruwa/data/db/relaydomains.mdb}{$value}fail}
+${lookup{$sender_address_domain}lmdb{/var/lib/baruwa/data/db/relaydomains.mdb}}
-Compile with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL and libidn.
-New main config option smtputf8_advertise_hosts, default '*',
-a host list. If this matches the sending host and
-accept_8bitmime is true (the default) then the ESMTP option
-SMTPUTF8 will be advertised.
+Queuefile transport
+-------------------
+Queuefile is a pseudo transport which does not perform final delivery.
+It simply copies the exim spool files out of the spool directory into
+an external directory retaining the exim spool format.
-If the sender specifies the SMTPUTF8 option on a MAIL command
-international handling for the message is enabled and
-the expansion variable $message_smtputf8 will have value TRUE.
+The spool files can then be processed by external processes and then
+requeued into exim spool directories for final delivery.
-The option allow_utf8_domains is set to true for this
-message. All DNS lookups are converted to a-label form
-whatever the setting of allow_utf8_domains.
+The motivation/inspiration for the transport is to allow external
+processes to access email queued by exim and have access to all the
+information which would not be available if the messages were delivered
+to the process in the standard email formats.
-Both localparts and domain are maintained as the original
-utf8 form internally; any matching or regex use will
-require appropriate care. Filenames created, eg. by
-the appendfile transport, will have utf8 name.
+The mailscanner package is one of the processes that can take advantage
+of this transport to filter email.
-Helo names sent by the smtp transport will have any utf8
-components expanded to a-label form.
+The transport can be used in the same way as the other existing transports,
+i.e by configuring a router to route mail to a transport configured with
+the queuefile driver.
-Any certificate name checks will be done using the a-label
-form of the name.
+The transport only takes one option:
-Log lines and Received-by: header lines will aquire a "utf8"
-prefix on the protocol element, eg. utf8esmtp.
+* directory - This is used to specify the directory messages should be
+copied to. Expanded.
-New expansion operators:
- ${utf8_domain_to_alabel:str}
- ${utf8_domain_from_alabel:str}
- ${utf8_localpart_to_alabel:str}
- ${utf8_localpart_from_alabel:str}
+The generic transport options (body_only, current_directory, disable_logging,
+debug_print, delivery_date_add, envelope_to_add, event_action, group,
+headers_add, headers_only, headers_remove, headers_rewrite, home_directory,
+initgroups, max_parallel, message_size_limit, rcpt_include_affixes,
+retry_use_local_part, return_path, return_path_add, shadow_condition,
+shadow_transport, transport_filter, transport_filter_timeout, user) are
+ignored.
-New "control = utf8_downconvert" ACL modifier,
-sets a flag requiring that addresses are converted to
-a-label form before smtp delivery, for use in a
-Message Submission Agent context. Can also be
-phrased as "control = utf8_downconvert/1" and is
-mandatory. The flag defaults to zero and can be cleared
-by "control = utf8_downconvert/0". The value "-1"
-may also be used, to use a-label for only if the
-destination host does not support SMTPUTF8.
+Sample configuration:
-If mua_wrapper is set, the utf8_downconvert control
-defaults to -1 (convert if needed).
+(Router)
+scan:
+ driver = accept
+ transport = scan
-There is no explicit support for VRFY and EXPN.
-Configurations supporting these should inspect
-$smtp_command_argument for an SMTPUTF8 argument.
+(Transport)
-There is no support for LMTP on Unix sockets.
-Using the "lmtp" protocol option on an smtp transport,
-for LMTP over TCP, should work as expected.
+scan:
+ driver = queuefile
+ directory = /var/spool/baruwa-scanner/input
-Known issues:
- - DSN unitext handling is not present
- - no provision for converting logging from or to UTF-8
-----
-IMAP folder names
+In order to build exim with Queuefile transport support add or uncomment
-New expansion operator:
+EXPERIMENTAL_QUEUEFILE=yes
-${imapfolder {<string>} {<sep>} {<specials>}}
+to your Local/Makefile. (Re-)build/install exim. exim -d should show
+Experimental_QUEUEFILE in the line "Support for:".
-The string is converted from the charset specified by the headers charset
-command (in a filter file) or headers_charset global option, to the
-modified UTF-7 encoding specified by RFC 2060, with the following
-exception: All occurences of <sep> (which has to be a single character)
-are replaced with periods ("."), and all periods and slashes that aren't
-<sep> and are not in the <specials> string are BASE64 encoded.
-The third argument can be omitted, defaulting to an empty string.
-The second argument can be omitted, defaulting to "/".
+ARC support
+-----------
+Specification: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol-11
+Note that this is not an RFC yet, so may change.
-This is the encoding used by Courier for Maildir names on disk, and followed
-by many other IMAP servers.
+ARC is intended to support the utility of SPF and DKIM in the presence of
+intermediaries in the transmission path - forwarders and mailinglists -
+by establishing a cryptographically-signed chain in headers.
- Example 1: ${imapfolder {Foo/Bar}} yields "Foo.Bar".
- Example 2: ${imapfolder {Foo/Bar}{.}{/}} yields "Foo&AC8-Bar".
- Example 3: ${imapfolder {Räksmörgås}} yields "R&AOQ-ksm&APY-rg&AOU-s".
+Normally one would only bother doing ARC-signing when functioning as
+an intermediary. One might do verify for local destinations.
-Note that the source charset setting is vital, and also that characters
-must be representable in UTF-16.
+ARC uses the notion of a "ADministrative Management Domain" (ADMD).
+Described in RFC 5598 (section 2.3), this is essentially the set of
+mail-handling systems that the mail transits. A label should be chosen to
+identify the ADMD. Messages should be ARC-verified on entry to the ADMD,
+and ARC-signed on exit from it.
+Verification
+--
+An ACL condition is provided to perform the "verifier actions" detailed
+in section 6 of the above specification. It may be called from the DATA ACL
+and succeeds if the result matches any of a given list.
+It also records the highest ARC instance number (the chain size)
+and verification result for later use in creating an Authentication-Results:
+standard header.
-DSN extra information
----------------------
-If compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_DSN_INFO extra information will be added
-to DSN fail messages ("bounces"), when available. The intent is to aid
-tracing of specific failing messages, when presented with a "bounce"
-complaint and needing to search logs.
+ verify = arc/<acceptable_list> none:fail:pass
+ add_header = :at_start:${authresults {<admd-identifier>}}
-The remote MTA IP address, with port number if nonstandard.
-Example:
- Remote-MTA: X-ip; [127.0.0.1]:587
-Rationale:
- Several addresses may correspond to the (already available)
- dns name for the remote MTA.
+ Note that it would be wise to strip incoming messages of A-R headers
+ that claim to be from our own <admd-identifier>.
-The remote MTA connect-time greeting.
-Example:
- X-Remote-MTA-smtp-greeting: X-str; 220 the.local.host.name ESMTP Exim x.yz Tue, 2 Mar 1999 09:44:33 +0000
-Rationale:
- This string sometimes presents the remote MTA's idea of its
- own name, and sometimes identifies the MTA software.
+There are two new variables: $arc_state and $arc_state_reason.
-The remote MTA response to HELO or EHLO.
-Example:
- X-Remote-MTA-helo-response: X-str; 250-the.local.host.name Hello localhost [127.0.0.1]
-Limitations:
- Only the first line of a multiline response is recorded.
-Rationale:
- This string sometimes presents the remote MTA's view of
- the peer IP connecting to it.
+Receive log lines for an ARC pass will be tagged "ARC".
-The reporting MTA detailed diagnostic.
-Example:
- X-Exim-Diagnostic: X-str; SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<d3@myhost.test.ex>: 550 hard error
-Rationale:
- This string somtimes give extra information over the
- existing (already available) Diagnostic-Code field.
-
-
-Note that non-RFC-documented field names and data types are used.
+Signing
+--
+arc_sign = <admd-identifier> : <selector> : <privkey>
+An option on the smtp transport, which constructs and prepends to the message
+an ARC set of headers. The textually-first Authentication-Results: header
+is used as a basis (you must have added one on entry to the ADMD).
+Expanded as a whole; if unset, empty or forced-failure then no signing is done.
+If it is set, all three elements must be non-empty.
