I've been looking at the specs and drafts (off and on) over the past
couple of weeks. Honestly, it hasn't gelled in my brain.
Individually, all the pieces make sense, but when I start thinking of
where in the Exim code I would put the pieces, I don't make any
forward progress. Defining the TLSA dns type is as far as I've
gotten.

These are fantastic. Thank you for making the code available Viktor.
It will be of great assistance.

Good to know, I'll try not to abuse that.

Agreed!
