5 # This is the template for Exim's main build-time configuration file. It
6 # contains settings that are independent of any operating system. These are
7 # things that are mostly sysadmin choices. The items below are divided into
8 # those you must specify, those you probably want to specify, those you might
9 # often want to specify, and those that you almost never need to mention.
10
11 # Edit this file and save the result to a file called Local/Makefile within the
12 # Exim distribution directory before running the "make" command.
13
14 # Things that depend on the operating system have default settings in
15 # OS/Makefile-Default, but these are overridden for some OS by files called
16 # called OS/Makefile-<osname>. You can further override these by creating files
17 # called Local/Makefile-<osname>, where "<osname>" stands for the name of your
18 # operating system - look at the names in the OS directory to see which names
19 # are recognized.
20
21 # However, if you are building Exim for a single OS only, you don't need to
22 # worry about setting up Local/Makefile-<osname>. Any build-time configuration
23 # settings you require can in fact be placed in the one file called
24 # Local/Makefile. It is only if you are building for several OS from the same
25 # source files that you need to worry about splitting off your own OS-dependent
26 # settings into separate files. (There's more explanation about how this all
27 # works in the toplevel README file, under "Modifying the building process", as
28 # well as in the Exim specification.)
29
30 # One OS-specific thing that may need to be changed is the command for running
31 # the C compiler; the overall default is gcc, but some OS Makefiles specify cc.
32 # You can override anything that is set by putting CC=whatever in your
33 # Local/Makefile.
34
35 # NOTE: You should never need to edit any of the distributed Makefiles; all
36 # overriding can be done in your Local/Makefile(s). This will make it easier
37 # for you when the next release comes along.
38
39 # The location of the X11 libraries is something else that is quite variable
40 # even between different versions of the same operating system (and indeed
41 # there are different versions of X11 as well, of course). The four settings
42 # concerned here are X11, XINCLUDE, XLFLAGS (linking flags) and X11_LD_LIB
43 # (dynamic run-time library). You need not worry about X11 unless you want to
44 # compile the Exim monitor utility. Exim itself does not use X11.
45
46 # Another area of variability between systems is the type and location of the
47 # DBM library package. Exim has support for ndbm, gdbm, tdb, and Berkeley DB.
48 # By default the code assumes ndbm; this often works with gdbm or DB, provided
49 # they are correctly installed, via their compatibility interfaces. However,
50 # Exim can also be configured to use the native calls for Berkeley DB (obsolete
51 # versions 1.85, 2.x, 3.x, or the current 4.x version) and also for gdbm.
52
53 # For some operating systems, a default DBM library (other than ndbm) is
54 # selected by a setting in the OS-specific Makefile. Most modern OS now have
55 # a DBM library installed as standard, and in many cases this will be selected
56 # for you by the OS-specific configuration. If Exim compiles without any
57 # problems, you probably do not have to worry about the DBM library. If you
58 # do want or need to change it, you should first read the discussion in the
59 # file doc/dbm.discuss.txt, which also contains instructions for testing Exim's
60 # interface to the DBM library.
61
62 # In Local/Makefiles blank lines and lines starting with # are ignored. It is
63 # also permitted to use the # character to add a comment to a setting, for
64 # example
65 #
66 # EXIM_GID=42 # the "mail" group
67 #
68 # However, with some versions of "make" this works only if there is no white
69 # space between the end of the setting and the #, so perhaps it is best
70 # avoided. A consequence of this facility is that it is not possible to have
71 # the # character present in any setting, but I can't think of any cases where
72 # this would be wanted.

81 # Exim will not build unless you specify BIN_DIRECTORY, CONFIGURE_FILE, and
82 # EXIM_USER. You also need EXIM_GROUP if EXIM_USER specifies a uid by number.
83
84 # If you don't specify SPOOL_DIRECTORY, Exim won't fail to build. However, it
85 # really is a very good idea to specify it here rather than at run time. This
86 # is particularly true if you let the logs go to their default location in the
87 # spool directory, because it means that the location of the logs is known
88 # before Exim has read the run time configuration file.
89
90 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
91 # BIN_DIRECTORY defines where the exim binary will be installed by "make
92 # install". The path is also used internally by Exim when it needs to re-invoke
93 # itself, either to send an error message, or to recover root privilege. Exim's
94 # utility binaries and scripts are also installed in this directory. There is
95 # no "standard" place for the binary directory. Some people like to keep all
96 # the Exim files under one directory such as /usr/exim; others just let the
97 # Exim binaries go into an existing directory such as /usr/sbin or
98 # /usr/local/sbin. The installation script will try to create this directory,
99 # and any superior directories, if they do not exist.
100
101 BIN_DIRECTORY=/usr/exim/bin
102
103
104 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
105 # CONFIGURE_FILE defines where Exim's run time configuration file is to be
106 # found. It is the complete pathname for the file, not just a directory. The
107 # location of all other run time files and directories can be changed in the
108 # run time configuration file. There is a lot of variety in the choice of
109 # location in different OS, and in the preferences of different sysadmins. Some
110 # common locations are in /etc or /etc/mail or /usr/local/etc or
111 # /usr/local/etc/mail. Another possibility is to keep all the Exim files under
112 # a single directory such as /usr/exim. Whatever you choose, the installation
113 # script will try to make the directory and any superior directories if they
114 # don't exist. It will also install a default runtime configuration if this
115 # file does not exist.
116
117 CONFIGURE_FILE=/usr/exim/configure
118
119 # It is possible to specify a colon-separated list of files for CONFIGURE_FILE.
120 # In this case, Exim will use the first of them that exists when it is run.
121 # However, if a list is specified, the installation script no longer tries to
122 # make superior directories or to install a default runtime configuration.
123
124
125 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
126 # The Exim binary must normally be setuid root, so that it starts executing as
127 # root, but (depending on the options with which it is called) it does not
128 # always need to retain the root privilege. These settings define the user and
129 # group that is used for Exim processes when they no longer need to be root. In
130 # particular, this applies when receiving messages and when doing remote
131 # deliveries. (Local deliveries run as various non-root users, typically as the
132 # owner of a local mailbox.) Specifying these values as root is not supported.
133
134 EXIM_USER=
135
136 # If you specify EXIM_USER as a name, this is looked up at build time, and the
137 # uid number is built into the binary. However, you can specify that this
138 # lookup is deferred until runtime. In this case, it is the name that is built
139 # into the binary. You can do this by a setting of the form:
140
141 # EXIM_USER=ref:exim
142
143 # In other words, put "ref:" in front of the user name. If you set EXIM_USER
144 # like this, any value specified for EXIM_GROUP is also passed "by reference".
145 # Although this costs a bit of resource at runtime, it is convenient to use
146 # this feature when building binaries that are to be run on multiple systems
147 # where the name may refer to different uids. It also allows you to build Exim
148 # on a system where there is no Exim user defined.
149
150 # If the setting of EXIM_USER is numeric (e.g. EXIM_USER=42), there must
151 # also be a setting of EXIM_GROUP. If, on the other hand, you use a name
152 # for EXIM_USER (e.g. EXIM_USER=exim), you don't need to set EXIM_GROUP unless
153 # you want to use a group other than the default group for the given user.
154
155 # EXIM_GROUP=
156
157 # Many sites define a user called "exim", with an appropriate default group,
158 # and use
159 #
160 # EXIM_USER=exim
161 #
162 # while leaving EXIM_GROUP unspecified (commented out).
163
164
165 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
166 # SPOOL_DIRECTORY defines the directory where all the data for messages in
167 # transit is kept. It is strongly recommended that you define it here, though
168 # it is possible to leave this till the run time configuration.
169
170 # Exim creates the spool directory if it does not exist. The owner and group
171 # will be those defined by EXIM_USER and EXIM_GROUP, and this also applies to
172 # all the files and directories that are created in the spool directory.
173

257 # *BEWARE*: ability to modify the files in LOOKUP_MODULE_DIR is equivalent to
258 # the ability to modify the Exim binary, which is often setuid root! The Exim

277 # common).
278 # If set to "2" instead of "yes" then the corresponding lookup will be
279 # built as a module and must be installed into LOOKUP_MODULE_DIR. You need to
280 # add -export-dynamic -rdynamic to EXTRALIBS. You may also need to add -ldl to
281 # EXTRALIBS so that dlopen() is available to Exim. You need to define
282 # LOOKUP_MODULE_DIR above so the exim binary actually loads dynamic lookup

506 # Although Exim is normally a setuid program, owned by root, it refuses to run
507 # local deliveries as root by default. There is a runtime option called
508 # "never_users" which lists the users that must never be used for local
509 # deliveries. There is also the setting below, which provides a list that
510 # cannot be overridden at runtime. This guards against problems caused by
511 # unauthorized changes to the runtime configuration. You are advised not to
512 # remove "root" from this option, but you can add other users if you want. The
513 # list is colon-separated. It must NOT contain any spaces.
514
515 # FIXED_NEVER_USERS=root:bin:daemon
516 FIXED_NEVER_USERS=root
517
518
519 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
520 # By default, Exim insists that its configuration file be owned by root. You
521 # can specify one additional permitted owner here.
522
523 # CONFIGURE_OWNER=
524
525 # If the configuration file is group-writeable, Exim insists by default that it
526 # is owned by root. You can specify one additional permitted group owner here.
527
528 # CONFIGURE_GROUP=
529
530 # If you specify CONFIGURE_OWNER or CONFIGURE_GROUP as a name, this is looked
531 # up at build time, and the uid or gid number is built into the binary.
532 # However, you can specify that the lookup is deferred until runtime. In this
533 # case, it is the name that is built into the binary. You can do this by a
534 # setting of the form:
535
536 # CONFIGURE_OWNER=ref:mail
537 # CONFIGURE_GROUP=ref:sysadmin
538
539 # In other words, put "ref:" in front of the user or group name. Although this
540 # costs a bit of resource at runtime, it is convenient to use this feature when
541 # building binaries that are to be run on multiple systems where the names may
542 # refer to different uids or gids. It also allows you to build Exim on a system
543 # where the relevant user or group is not defined.
544
545
546 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
547 # The -C option allows Exim to be run with an alternate runtime configuration
548 # file. When this is used by root, root privilege is retained by the binary
549 # (for any other caller including the Exim user, it is dropped). You can
550 # restrict the location of alternate configurations by defining a prefix below.
551 # Any file used with -C must then start with this prefix (except that /dev/null
552 # is also permitted if the caller is root, because that is used in the install
553 # script). If the prefix specifies a directory that is owned by root, a
554 # compromise of the Exim account does not permit arbitrary alternate
555 # configurations to be used. The prefix can be more restrictive than just a
556 # directory (the second example).
557
558 # ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=/some/directory/
559 # ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX=/some/directory/exim.conf-
560
561
562 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
563 # When a user other than root uses the -C option to override the configuration
564 # file (including the Exim user when re-executing Exim to regain root
565 # privileges for local message delivery), this will normally cause Exim to
566 # drop root privileges. The TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST option, specifies a file which
567 # contains a list of trusted configuration filenames, one per line. If the -C
568 # option is used by the Exim user or by the user specified in the
569 # CONFIGURE_OWNER setting, to specify a configuration file which is listed in
570 # the TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST file, then root privileges are not dropped by Exim.
571
572 # TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST=/usr/exim/trusted_configs
573
574
575 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
576 # Uncommenting this option disables the use of the -D command line option,
577 # which changes the values of macros in the runtime configuration file.
578 # This is another protection against somebody breaking into the Exim account.
579
580 # DISABLE_D_OPTION=yes
581
582
583 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
584 # By contrast, you might be maintaining a system which relies upon the ability
585 # to override values with -D and assumes that these will be passed through to
586 # the delivery processes. As of Exim 4.73, this is no longer the case by
587 # default. Going forward, we strongly recommend that you use a shim Exim
588 # configuration file owned by root stored under TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST.
589 # That shim can set macros before .include'ing your main configuration file.
590 #
591 # As a strictly transient measure to ease migration to 4.73, the
592 # WHITELIST_D_MACROS value definies a colon-separated list of macro-names
593 # which are permitted to be overridden from the command-line which will be
594 # honoured by the Exim user. So these are macros that can persist to delivery
595 # time.
596 # Examples might be -DTLS or -DSPOOL=/some/dir. The values on the
597 # command-line are filtered to only permit: [A-Za-z0-9_/.-]*
598 #
599 # This option is highly likely to be removed in a future release. It exists
600 # only to make 4.73 as easy as possible to migrate to. If you use it, we
601 # encourage you to schedule time to rework your configuration to not depend
602 # upon it. Most people should not need to use this.
603 #
604 # By default, no macros are whitelisted for -D usage.

609 # Exim has support for the AUTH (authentication) extension of the SMTP
610 # protocol, as defined by RFC 2554. If you don't know what SMTP authentication
611 # is, you probably won't want to include this code, so you should leave these
612 # settings commented out. If you do want to make use of SMTP authentication,
613 # you must uncomment at least one of the following, so that appropriate code is
614 # included in the Exim binary. You will then need to set up the run time
615 # configuration to make use of the mechanism(s) selected.

640 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
641 # When Exim is decoding MIME "words" in header lines, most commonly for use
642 # in the $header_xxx expansion, it converts any foreign character sets to the
643 # one that is set in the headers_charset option. The default setting is
644 # defined by this setting:
645
646 HEADERS_CHARSET="ISO-8859-1"
647
648 # If you are going to make use of $header_xxx expansions in your configuration
649 # file, or if your users are going to use them in filter files, and the normal
650 # character set on your host is something other than ISO-8859-1, you might
651 # like to specify a different default here. This value can be overridden in
652 # the runtime configuration, and it can also be overridden in individual filter
653 # files.
654 #
655 # IMPORTANT NOTE: The iconv() function is needed for character code
656 # conversions. Please see the next item...
657
658
659 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
660 # Character code conversions are possible only if the iconv() function is
661 # installed on your operating system. There are two places in Exim where this
662 # is relevant: (a) The $header_xxx expansion (see the previous item), and (b)
663 # the Sieve filter support. For those OS where iconv() is known to be installed
664 # as standard, the file in OS/Makefile-xxxx contains
665 #
666 # HAVE_ICONV=yes
667 #
668 # If you are not using one of those systems, but have installed iconv(), you
669 # need to uncomment that line above. In some cases, you may find that iconv()
670 # and its header file are not in the default places. You might need to use
671 # something like this:
672 #
673 # HAVE_ICONV=yes
674 # CFLAGS=-O -I/usr/local/include
675 # EXTRALIBS_EXIM=-L/usr/local/lib -liconv
676 #
677 # but of course there may need to be other things in CFLAGS and EXTRALIBS_EXIM
678 # as well.
679
680
681 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
682 # The passwords for user accounts are normally encrypted with the crypt()
683 # function. Comparisons with encrypted passwords can be done using Exim's
684 # "crypteq" expansion operator. (This is commonly used as part of the
685 # configuration of an authenticator for use with SMTP AUTH.) At least one
686 # operating system has an extended function called crypt16(), which uses up to
687 # 16 characters of a password (the normal crypt() uses only the first 8). Exim
688 # supports the use of crypt16() as well as crypt() but note the warning below.
689
690 # You can always indicate a crypt16-encrypted password by preceding it with
691 # "{crypt16}". If you want the default handling (without any preceding
692 # indicator) to use crypt16(), uncomment the following line:
693
694 # DEFAULT_CRYPT=crypt16
695
696 # If you do that, you can still access the basic crypt() function by preceding
697 # an encrypted password with "{crypt}". For more details, see the description
698 # of the "crypteq" condition in the manual chapter on string expansions.
699
700 # Some operating systems do not include a crypt16() function, so Exim has one
701 # of its own, which it uses unless HAVE_CRYPT16 is defined. Normally, that will
702 # be set in an OS-specific Makefile for the OS that have such a function, so
703 # you should not need to bother with it.
704
705 # *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING *** WARNING ***
706 # It turns out that the above is not entirely accurate. As well as crypt16()
707 # there is a function called bigcrypt() that some operating systems have. This
708 # may or may not use the same algorithm, and both of them may be different to
709 # Exim's built-in crypt16() that is used unless HAVE_CRYPT16 is defined.
710 #
711 # However, since there is now a move away from the traditional crypt()
712 # functions towards using SHA1 and other algorithms, tidying up this area of
713 # Exim is seen as very low priority. In practice, if you need to, you can
714 # define DEFAULT_CRYPT to the name of any function that has the same interface
715 # as the traditional crypt() function.

719 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
720 # Exim can be built to support the SMTP STARTTLS command, which implements
721 # Transport Layer Security using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). To do this, you
722 # must install the OpenSSL library package or the GnuTLS library. Exim contains
723 # no cryptographic code of its own. Uncomment the following lines if you want
724 # to build Exim with TLS support. If you don't know what this is all about,
725 # leave these settings commented out.
726
727 # This setting is required for any TLS support (either OpenSSL or GnuTLS)
728 # SUPPORT_TLS=yes
729
730 # Uncomment one of these settings if you are using OpenSSL; pkg-config vs not
731 # USE_OPENSSL_PC=openssl
732 # TLS_LIBS=-lssl -lcrypto
733
734 # Uncomment the first and either the second or the third of these if you
735 # are using GnuTLS. If you have pkg-config, then the second, else the third.
736 # USE_GNUTLS=yes
737 # USE_GNUTLS_PC=gnutls
738 # TLS_LIBS=-lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
739
740 # The security fix we provide with the gnutls_allow_auto_pkcs11 option
741 # (4.82 PP/09) introduces a compatibility regression. The symbol is
742 # not available if GnuTLS is build without p11-kit (--without-p11-kit
743 # configure option). In this case use AVOID_GNUTLS_PKCS11=yes when
744 # building Exim.
745 # AVOID_GNUTLS_PKCS11=yes
746
747 # If you are running Exim as a server, note that just building it with TLS
748 # support is not all you need to do. You also need to set up a suitable
749 # certificate, and tell Exim about it by means of the tls_certificate
750 # and tls_privatekey run time options. You also need to set tls_advertise_hosts
751 # to specify the hosts to which Exim advertises TLS support. On the other hand,
752 # if you are running Exim only as a client, building it with TLS support
753 # is all you need to do.
754
755 # If you are using pkg-config then you should not need to worry where the
756 # libraries and headers are installed, as the pkg-config .pc specification
757 # should include all -L/-I information necessary. If not using pkg-config
758 # then you might need to specify the locations too.
759
760 # Additional libraries and include files are required for both OpenSSL and
761 # GnuTLS. The TLS_LIBS settings above assume that the libraries are installed
762 # with all your other libraries. If they are in a special directory, you may
763 # need something like
764
765 # TLS_LIBS=-L/usr/local/openssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto
766 # or
767 # TLS_LIBS=-L/opt/gnu/lib -lgnutls -ltasn1 -lgcrypt
768
769 # TLS_LIBS is included only on the command for linking Exim itself, not on any
770 # auxiliary programs. If the include files are not in a standard place, you can
771 # set TLS_INCLUDE to specify where they are, for example:
772
773 # TLS_INCLUDE=-I/usr/local/openssl/include/
774 # or
775 # TLS_INCLUDE=-I/opt/gnu/include
776
777 # You don't need to set TLS_INCLUDE if the relevant directories are already
778 # specified in INCLUDE.
779
780
781 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
782 # The default distribution of Exim contains only the plain text form of the
783 # documentation. Other forms are available separately. If you want to install
784 # the documentation in "info" format, first fetch the Texinfo documentation
785 # sources from the ftp directory and unpack them, which should create files
786 # with the extension "texinfo" in the doc directory. You may find that the
787 # version number of the texinfo files is different to your Exim version number,
788 # because the main documentation isn't updated as often as the code. For
789 # example, if you have Exim version 4.43, the source tarball upacks into a
790 # directory called exim-4.43, but the texinfo tarball unpacks into exim-4.40.
791 # In this case, move the contents of exim-4.40/doc into exim-4.43/doc after you
792 # have unpacked them. Then set INFO_DIRECTORY to the location of your info
793 # directory. This varies from system to system, but is often /usr/share/info.
794 # Once you have done this, "make install" will build the info files and
795 # install them in the directory you have defined.
796
797 # INFO_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/info
798
799
800 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
801 # Exim log directory and files: Exim creates several log files inside a
802 # single log directory. You can define the directory and the form of the
803 # log file name here. If you do not set anything, Exim creates a directory
804 # called "log" inside its spool directory (see SPOOL_DIRECTORY above) and uses
805 # the filenames "mainlog", "paniclog", and "rejectlog". If you want to change
806 # this, you can set LOG_FILE_PATH to a path name containing one occurrence of
807 # %s. This will be replaced by one of the strings "main", "panic", or "reject"
808 # to form the final file names. Some installations may want something like this:
809
810 # LOG_FILE_PATH=/var/log/exim_%slog
811
812 # which results in files with names /var/log/exim_mainlog, etc. The directory
813 # in which the log files are placed must exist; Exim does not try to create
814 # it for itself. It is also your responsibility to ensure that Exim is capable
815 # of writing files using this path name. The Exim user (see EXIM_USER above)
816 # must be able to create and update files in the directory you have specified.
817
818 # You can also configure Exim to use syslog, instead of or as well as log
819 # files, by settings such as these
820
821 # LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog
822 # LOG_FILE_PATH=syslog:/var/log/exim_%slog
823
824 # The first of these uses only syslog; the second uses syslog and also writes
825 # to log files. Do not include white space in such a setting as it messes up
826 # the building process.
827
828
829 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
830 # When logging to syslog, the following option caters for syslog replacements
831 # that are able to accept log entries longer than the 1024 characters allowed
832 # by RFC 3164. It is up to you to make sure your syslog daemon can handle this.
833 # Non-printable characters are usually unacceptable regardless, so log entries

907
908 # RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf
909 # RADIUS_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/radius.conf

914 # RADIUS_LIB_TYPE=RADIUSCLIENT
915 # RADIUS_LIB_TYPE=RADIUSCLIENTNEW
916 # RADIUS_LIB_TYPE=RADLIB
917
918 # RADIUSCLIENT is the radiusclient library; you probably need to add
919 # -lradiusclient to EXTRALIBS.
920 #
921 # The API for the radiusclient library was changed at release 0.4.0.
922 # Unfortunately, the header file does not define a version number that clients
923 # can use to support both the old and new APIs. If you are using version 0.4.0
924 # or later of the radiusclient library, you should use RADIUSCLIENTNEW.
925 #
926 # RADLIB is the Radius library that comes with FreeBSD (the header file is
927 # called radlib.h); you probably need to add -lradius to EXTRALIBS.
928 #

993 # The default action of the exim_install script (which is run by "make
994 # install") is to install the Exim binary with a unique name such as
995 # exim-4.43-1, and then set up a symbolic link called "exim" to reference it,
996 # moving the symbolic link from any previous version. If you define NO_SYMLINK
997 # (the value doesn't matter), the symbolic link is not created or moved. You
998 # will then have to "turn Exim on" by setting up the link manually.
999
1000 # NO_SYMLINK=yes
1001
1002
1003 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1004 # Another default action of the install script is to install a default runtime
1005 # configuration file if one does not exist. This configuration has a router for
1006 # expanding system aliases. The default assumes that these aliases are kept
1007 # in the traditional file called /etc/aliases. If such a file does not exist,
1008 # the installation script creates one that contains just comments (no actual
1009 # aliases). The following setting can be changed to specify a different
1010 # location for the system alias file.

1014
1015 #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1016 # There are some testing options (-be, -bt, -bv) that read data from the
1017 # standard input when no arguments are supplied. By default, the input lines
1018 # are read using the standard fgets() function. This does not support line
1019 # editing during interactive input (though the terminal's "erase" character
1020 # works as normal). If your operating system has the readline() function, and
1021 # in addition supports dynamic loading of library functions, you can cause
1022 # Exim to use readline() for the -be testing option (only) by uncommenting the
1023 # following setting. Dynamic loading is used so that the library is loaded only
1024 # when the -be testing option is given; by the time the loading occurs,
1025 # Exim has given up its root privilege and is running as the calling user. This
1026 # is the reason why readline() is NOT supported for -bt and -bv, because Exim
1027 # runs as root or as exim, respectively, for those options. When USE_READLINE
1028 # is "yes", as well as supporting line editing, a history of input lines in the
1029 # current run is maintained.
1030
1031 # USE_READLINE=yes
1032
1033 # You may need to add -ldl to EXTRALIBS when you set USE_READLINE=yes.
1034 # Note that this option adds to the size of the Exim binary, because the
1035 # dynamic loading library is not otherwise included.

1056 # used when the scripts are run. They are not used in the Makefile itself. Perl
1057 # is not necessary for running Exim unless you set EXIM_PERL (see above) to get
1058 # it embedded, but there are some utilities that are Perl scripts. If you

1080 # In some operating systems, the value of the TMPDIR environment variable

1082 # temporary files, except when delivering to MBX mailboxes. However, if Exim
1083 # calls any external libraries (e.g. DBM libraries), they may use temporary
1084 # files, and thus be influenced by the value of TMPDIR. For this reason, when
1085 # Exim starts, it checks the environment for TMPDIR, and if it finds it is set,
1086 # it replaces the value with what is defined here. Commenting this setting

1108 # with the node name obtained by uname() tacked on the end, separated by a
1109 # period (for example, /usr/exim/configure.host.in.some.domain). If this file

1305 # Expanding match_* second paramters: BE CAREFUL IF ENABLING THIS!
1306 # It has proven too easy in practice for administrators to configure security
1307 # problems into their Exim install, by treating match_domain{}{} and friends
1308 # as a form of string comparison, where the second string comes from untrusted
1309 # data. Because these options take lists, which can include lookup;LOOKUPDATA
1310 # style elements, a foe can then cause Exim to, eg, execute an arbitrary MySQL
1311 # query, dropping tables.
1312 # From Exim 4.77 onwards, the second parameter is not expanded; it can still
1313 # be a list literal, or a macro, or a named list reference. There is also
1314 # the new expansion condition "inlisti" which does expand the second parameter,
