config. Mostly commented-out and with dummy lookups since we do not know what sorts of filtering may be employed. (cherry picked from commit b220576b3ba5396af6b3e0f45739f269079f8fc5)

2018-12-18Default config: use ROUTER_SMARTHOST macro; documentexim-4.92-RC3Phil Pennock
Work around the `$host` vs CNAME issue for now by re-specifying the `tls_sni` value on the example `smarthost_smtp` transport, using the same macro which we use to turn on use of a smarthost. Uncomment both dnslookup and smarthost routers by default and let the macro choose between them. Bring the documentation of the default configuration closer to up-to-date, on this issue and others which I spotted while in there.

2018-09-09docs: unbreak spec buildPhil Pennock
I've created a homebrew tap with sdop and xfpt in it, so I can install those more easily on macOS in the future, and now have bothered actually building the docs. `.url()` should have been `&url()` in two places. The `make spec.pdf` pipeline yields a document where those are not clickable links, but if i use `make spec.ps` and let macOS auto-convert to PDF upon open, those are proper clickable hyperlinks. So this switch is definitely for the better.

2018-09-07Fix broken doc links and http→https where possiblePhil Pennock
I got a cookie-cutter email from folks noting the modssl.org doc links were broken and asking us to use their site instead, which was both helpful and a rather heavy page with advertising on it, so not something I want our docs to link to. Fixed the modssl link to point to the correct current Apache docs, since mod_ssl has not been a separate project for … a very long time. Audited every `http:` link in the Spec, replacing with https if available, updating URLs as needed, or trimming deadwood as appropriate. This did edit one license text, but in a way which I believe is reasonable and in the license holder's best interests. * Use comments with a datestamp for any remaining http: URLs, showing when they were last audited * Suggest migrating away from Berkeley DB. * Drop mention of a patched `pam_unix` module which is no longer available. * In revamping the CDB tools links, add my own tools. * Redo the intro text for the mod_ssl stuff (first person voice of PH). * Rescorla's book's online examples appear to be gone; drop mention of them and point to Ristić's more recent book too. * Point to wikipedia list of DNSxL services as an overview, in part because I dropped the reference to the defunct rfc-ignorant.org and there was no good candidate as an exemplar for domain-based lists. * Note that mksd is a candidate for removal from Exim since mks_vir is dead. * Drop LogReport/lire reference (dead/gone and can't find it). * Redo proxy protocol spec-linking text. * Replace FAQ A1701 with text saying "don't do that" (self-signed certs) and just telling people to use a CA instead, pointing strongly to Let's Encrypt. We did nobody any favors with that old text still being present today (it was entirely appropriate when written).

2018-07-13doc: DANE: don't claim TA can be elided from chainPhil Pennock
While technically an implementation can choose to use a public TA from DNS or elsewhere to populate a missing TA from the chain, that creates interoperability issues and the OpenSSL integration code, at least, doesn't support that and after a bit of work drilling through layers of abstraction, I've not figured out what GnuTLS does and I've decided I don't care. So I'm heeding Viktor's advice and changing the docs to just say to publish the TA in the chain sent by the server.

2018-07-10Document problems with SHA-1 in certs with DANE-TAPhil Pennock
Very few domains are using SHA-1 in EE certs issued from a CA used in DANE-TA anchoring, but some are. Meanwhile apparently GnuTLS now defaults to disabling SHA-1 in chains. Which is eminently reasonable. I do not believe that Exim should re-enable use of SHA-1 here. Let it die. Document with warnings that folks using a private CA for certs to be publicly trusted via DANE-TA should follow decent operational issuance practices. Also update my Channel Binding docs for GSASL to warn that Channel Binding is Broken™.

Following discussions on the exim-user mailinglist it seems that the conclusion that the interface was nonfunctioning was unwarranted.
