-      <li><i>Please note that this web site is updated asynchronously with
-         exim releases, and may sometimes trail versions by a few days or
-         even weeks</i></li>
-      <li>
-       Current Exim versions are <b>3.36</b> and <b>4.12</b>, both of
-       which are bug fix releases over the previous versions.
-      </li>
-      <li>
-       A <b>Generic Windows Executable Content</b> filter is
-       available at <a href="ftp://ftp.exim.org/pub/filter/">
-       ftp://ftp.exim.org/pub/filter/</a> or <A
-       HREF="system_filter.exim">here</A>.  This is an exim system
-       filter which attempts to detect Windows executables, and block
-       the messages containing them.  It has limitations - specifically
-       related to trying to parse MIME with regular expressions,
-       but many people are using it as a cheap means of protection.

+    <h2>Exim Course</h2>
+    <p>There is an <a href="http://www-tus.csx.cam.ac.uk/courses/exim/">Exim course</a> at the University of Cambridge in July 2004.</p>
+
+    <h2>Current Versions</h2>
+    <p>
+      The current version of Exim is <b>4.31</b>.  See the <a href="mirrors.html"><b>Download</b></a> page to get a copy.
+    </p>
+
+    <p>Exim 3 and previous versions are now considered obsolete.  Exim 3
+    is not being developed any further, nor is it being actively
+    maintained, though if a really serious bug were found, it would be
+    looked at.</p>
+
+    <p>The old system filter has been deleted from the site - it is
+    not appropriate for current mail configurations.</p>
+
+    <h2>Exim Books</h2> 
+
+    <p>The new <a href="http://www.uit.co.uk/exim-book/"> Exim 4
+    book</a> is available.  See the <a
+    href="http://www.uit.co.uk/exim-book/">book website</a> for

-       entry for exim</a> on O'Reilly's <a
-       hred="http://OSDir.com">OSDir.com</a> site.  At the time of
-       writing this has very little content, but people may wish to
-       correct that...</p>
+    <p>The O'Reilly <a href="http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/exim/">Exim 3
+       book</a> is still available.</p>
 
-    <h2>Exim Book</h2>
-    <p>The <a href="http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/exim/">definitive exim version 3 book</a>, 
-      written by Philip Hazel, is still available.  Orders can
-      be placed through a number of the on-line retailers.  A new book
-      covering exim version 4 (to be published by a different
-      publisher) is currently in preparation.</p>
