Subject: [exim] Wrong documentation for server_set_id?
Hello,

I have an authenticator that uses the full email address as username, so
it results in:

     $auth1 = roland@???
     $auth2 = password


In the authenticator, I have:

     server_set_id = $auth1


The documentation[1] says that this variable is only used for logging
and for user-defined things. But somehow, it is also embedded in
outgoing mails, so that it looks like this:

Return-Path: <"roland@???>

Is the documentation wrong, or did I understand it wrongly?
