Assumpte: [Exim] Status of TLS-support?


Hi everyone,

I've been trying to determine how far the TLS-support in Exim goes. I've
been doing some research but since I'm still slightly uncertain, I'm
looking for confirmations/corrections.

- From what I've found in the documentation, on the web and in the
mailing-list archives, it seems like this:

 o  Exim supports server-certificates.
 o  Exim supports client-certificates.
 o  Exim itself can act as a TLS-client.
 o  Exim does not support CA-certificates (certificate authority),
     e.g. to verify the client-certificates.
     You can, however, put multiple certificates in 'tls_certificate'
     so that a client will be able to do the verification.
 o  Exim does not support CRL (certificate revocation lists).


TIA -- Till
