Hi!
After upgrading Exim to 4.83_rc1 mail server stops working due to:

  option "dsn_process" unknown


Quoting from url: https://github.com/Exim/exim/commit/6c1c3d1dbe1a62ffd24ad9b3cd9efdfe275c74c5

"If you used DSN patch up to 1.3 before remove all "dsn_process" switches from
your routers since you don't need them anymore. There is no way to "gag"+success DSNs anymore. Announcing DSN means answering as requested."

Could you add simple info that admin should remove this option from configuration?

Reproducible: Always
