Hi Vera,
I'm sorry I think that I must have closed that in error. I don't recall doing so and would have left a comment unless it was abundantly clear that the issue was completed.
Regards,
Roger
Hi,
I believe I had the same feature request for Mosquitto a few months
ago, and I am also still interested in this. See my issue on GitHub
here: https://github.com/eclipse/mosquitto/issues/1757
The issue was recently closed by Roger. Maybe he could comment why.
Best regards
Vera
