Ah, okay. I was just looking into my spec.txt if it says the same... It
does. Strange, I really read that part a few times! Sorry for that.
Actually I was trying to get the remote IP for "SMTP after POP"-support if
somebody accesses exim through stunnel. stunnel is modified to replace a
special parameter by the real remote IP, this is not a problem. I've
written a small C program that is called by stunnel now, does two
pipe()'s, a few dup2()'s and calls exim afterwards with -oMa and the
remote IP. It works - though I would rather call it a dirty hack.
Is there a cleaner solution to do this?

Ups, thanks! I didn't know this one yet.
Thanks a lot for the answers and keep up the good work,
Joachim
