The default Received: for messages received over TLS includes the
identity of the cipher used. I decided that that was sufficient, and
that you didn't need two more protocol variants (over TLS and auth over
TLS). It also means you can remove the cipher information if you want
to, by re-defining the header, and thereby remove any indication of the
use of TLS, should you want to.
