No, I have not changed the setting of $tls_cipher during an outgoing
connection. It was a mess before. It always got set when encryption was
started up, on either kind of connection.

What I have done is to *unset* it before making an outgoing connection.
Previously, if it was set, it meant that either the incoming or the
outgoing connection was encrypted. Now it means that the outgoing
connection is encrypted.

The only expansions that this affects are the one for the HELO/EHLO
text, and those in an authenticator. I think those are the only ones
that happen after the connection is established.
