File qmail-1.03-rfc2821-tls.patch of Package netqmail

(this is the 2nd edition of this patch and the 4th edition of the
introductory text)
(modified by Peter Conrad to work together with STARTTLS patch)

This patch changes qmail-remote to skip over MX servers that greet with
codes 400 to 499 and to bounce mail when any MX server that qmail tries
greets with a code 500 to 599.

If you want qmail-remote to skip over hosts greeting with 5XX-codes and
try the next MX for real RFC-2821 compliance (Sendmail and Postfix do
that), change the

if (code >= 500 && code < 600) quit("DConnected to "," but greeting failed");

if (code >= 500 && code < 600) return;
