            Bug ID: 2178
           Summary: Support PAM RHOST
           Product: Exim
           Version: N/A
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: medium
         Component: SMTP Authentication
          Assignee: jgh146exb@???
          Reporter: michael@???

I'm using PAM shield to track failed logins and to automatically blacklist
remote hosts which are spamming authentication attempts. Exim does not work
with this setup right now as it does not set the PAM_RHOST item during
authentication.
This item should hold the remote IP used during authentication.

Would it be feasible to set this item in src/auths/call_pam.c? I would provide
a patch myself but I do not have a clue how to access the remote IP during
authentication in Exim.
