I have an extra feature request for the upcoming next version.

When I run exim on a satellite System to send mails only to a smarthost
with authentication, I find no way to use SCRAM-SHA-1 as a client setting.

When I check the gsasl code I can only find the settings for the server
version.

To prevend the exposure of a plaintext password when for whatever
reasons DNS/TLS could be redirected to a malicious system.

If SCRAM-SHA-1 could be added, the changes to add also SCRAM-SHA-256
should be small.

Regards Torsten
