I do not understand. Do you mean that it no longer accepts authentication
requests unless auth_advertise_hosts is set (and the client is in the
list)? Or do you mean that if it is set it will not accept authentication
request from clients not in the list?
I run 4.12, have no auth_advertise_hosts at all and exim accept
authentication requests, so I think the second statement is right.
