Hi Philip, *
Browsing through the new Exim 3.30 code, I found that the "authenticate
bounce" code seems to be missing in the new release. Only the -Mas/-Mai
interface made it's way into the release.
So I patched the full semantics as discussed in February back into the
new release. I am pretty shure, that it may be of use for some sites
with authentication. So I ask You, if You probably want to include it in
the next release.
The attached patch allows to send bounces as authenticated mail over the
next ASMTP link. For this purpose it introduces a new global boolean
attribute, "authenticate bounces". It uses the exim-user as
authenticator.
An additional suggestion for discussion: Wouldn't it be probably safer
to allow only trusted callers to authenticate implicitly with the
-Mai/-Mas options? That's, why the set_authenticateed_xxxx variables are
back again.
Please find the patch attached.
Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Yours sincerely
