     <h2>Current Versions</h2>
     <p>
-      Current Exim versions are <b>3.36</b> and <b>4.14</b>, both of
-      which are bug fix releases over the previous versions.
+      The current version of Exim is <b>4.34</b>.  See the <a
+      href="mirrors.html"><b>Download</b></a> page to get a copy.
+      There were a number of issues with earlier <b>4.3x</b> versions 
+      so their use is discouraged.  Security fixes in this release 
+      mean that all previous versions should be obsoleted in favour
+      of 4.34.
