Package: exim4-daemon-heavy Version: 4.88-5~bpo8+1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
I installed a couple of server with exim4-daemon-heavy (package installed from backports) to use it behind a haproxy load balancer, I tried to configure the hosts_proxy option, but this is not understood by the daemon, the error "main option "hosts_proxy" unknown" was returned. After writing to the exim4 list I found that the compile time option for Proxy Protocol support was not enabled for the package, could you please consider to enable it ? Without the proxy protocol support the exim servers will consider all connections coming from the haproxy load balancer instead of the original ip address of the host contacting the haproxy.
