The person reporting it was using Message Systems' Momentum MTA (formerly ecelerity). In particular, it advertised XCLIENT during EHLO like so: 250-XCLIENT which violates the postfix doc by not listing support attributes, and on acknowledgement of successful XCLIENT request it responds with 250 2.0.0 XCLIENT handled Despite the postfix doc listing 220 as the success code. None of this is really Exim's problem, but as more tools support this, it would be really nice to point to something other than a postfix readme as the implementation standard. --John -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
