Subject: [exim] Useful RFC documents for anyone running Exim
Hi all,

For the past year I've been making a list of useful RFC documents for
anyone running an Exim mail server.
I've also gone back through the list archives and added RFCs that have
been cited in answers to questions posted on the list.
