84and actions, then it can return
85SMFIS_ALL_OPTS
86and the MTA will make all protocol steps and actions available
87to the milter.
88In this case, no values should be assigned to the output parameters

110<!----------- Notes ---------->
111<TR>
112<TH valign="top" align=left>NOTES</TH>
113<TD>This function allows a milter to dynamically determine and
114request operations and actions during startup.
115In previous versions, the actions (f0) were fixed in the
116<A HREF="smfi_register.html#flags">flags</A> field of the
117<A HREF="smfi_register.html#smfiDesc">smfiDesc</A>
118structure
119and the protocol steps (f1) were implicitly derived by checking whether
120a callback was defined.
121Due to the extensions in the new milter version,
122such a static selection will not work if a milter requires
123new actions that are not available when talking to an older MTA.
124Hence in the negotiation callback a milter can determine
125which operations are available and dynamically select
126those which it needs and which are offered.
127If some operations are not available, the milter may either fall back
128to an older mode or abort the session and ask the user to upgrade.

143By setting this bit, a milter can request that the
144MTA should also send <CODE>RCPT</CODE> commands that have been rejected
145because the user is unknown (or similar reasons), but not those
146which have been rejected because of syntax errors etc.

152If a milter requests this protocol step,
153then it should check the macro

155if that is set to

157then the recipient will be rejected by the MTA.
158Usually the macros
