Sorry, that's my fault. When you said you weren't particularly interested in
problems caused by network outages, I presented that as an alternative way
of achieving the same result. I was wrong.

I'll fall back to arguing that temporary network outages _do_ happen in the
real world, and the state Exim gets itself into when this happens is
self-sustaining, given a throughput of more than 72 mails a day.

I thought so, yeah. Optimising for the 95% is fine -- but I do tend to
prefer it if the percentage of mail that actually gets to my mailboxes after
being accepted by one of my servers is somewhat higher than that, though :)

ITYM 'If I can get the RSET thing to work with the servers we're currently
testing against, with this phase of the moon...'

Even if it seems to work, I would still think that the default should be
equivalent to "hosts_nopass_tls = *". But I know how to configure my own
boxes to behave that way - there's no real need to argue about _defaults_ if
you don't agree, and nobody else on the list gives a monkey's.
