Hi all, got a little bit of confusion over protocols here and was
wondering if somebody could point me to the definitive explanation.

Normal users on port 25 go in the exim log as P=smtp

authenticated users I would expect to see as P=asmtp

and Outlook express users on port 465 I was sort of expecting to see
P=esmtp

But all authenticated users now appear in the log as P=esmtpsa

this is the same for normal (sensible) client users on ports 25/587 and
OE users on port 465. Has something changed in the latest version of
exim, or has it always been this way?
