I am not at all keen on this, but I suppose I am open to persuasion if
lots of people feel the need.
To remind the list of the issue: A broken client fails to send a new
EHLO after starting a TLS session; this leaves Exim in SMTP mode rather
than ESMTP mode, because it has reset itself, as the RFC specifies. The
client then sends a MAIL command with a SIZE option, which Exim rejects
because that is valid only in ESMTP mode.
What do people think about this?
