Since it seems that $tls_in_sni is returning blank and/or can be unreliable, what is the best way to handle things? To just use a default domain for handling mail? For example, use mail.myhosting.com <http://mail.myhosting.com/> for everything instead of mail.mysite.com <http://mail.mysite.com/>?


tls_in_sni *can* be blank, yes.

Yes, we use *one* MX name for all the domains we host.

That's what we do, yes. The SNI feature I'm only using, because we're in
progress renaming the MX, so I'd like to support both certs, for the old
MX name and for the new one.

I wouldn't do that for many domains, as it doesn't scale well for
millions of domains. You'd have to create a new cert for each domain
you're about to host. I'm not sure if you want to do it.

Yes, you can do it automagically, Even from within Exim. But the effort
increments, as soon as you want to publish TLSA records and such, or
wan't to obtain the certs from a public CA, or even both.

Not impossible, but maybe PITA, depending on your ressources for setup,
maintainance, monitoring and debugging.
