Hi David,
does exim use compression on tls connections ?
It does not "steer" it.
If you build OpenSSL 0.9.8 with the "zlib"-configure option and link
Exim with it, you have got compression.
GnuTLS has no compile time option.
I wrote a "patch" to enable it by configuration options as well as log
to exim_mainlog whether compression is used or not, and I am afraid I
once promised to contribute it.
However, I got stuck when implementing SSL session caching and never
finished the patch.
I guess compression is *very* helpful for e.g. mobile / modem users
(however, no popular MUA does support it - neither Opera nor Thunderbird
or any other I looked at.)
Cheers,
Georg
