Current Versions

+ The current version of Exim is 4.43. See the Download page to get a copy. + There were a number of issues with earlier 4.3x versions + so their use is discouraged. Security fixes in this release + mean that all previous versions should be obsoleted in favour of + 4.34 or 4.41. Users of 4.40 should be aware that there is an + issue which may cause the exim daemon to die - this is fixed in + 4.41 and later. +

+ +

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.

+ +

The old system filter has been deleted from the site - it is + not appropriate for current mail configurations. If you are still + using it please discontinue immediately - it creates severe + collateral spam issues.

- Current Exim versions are 3.36 and 4.10, both of - which are bug fix releases over the previous versions. -
- A Generic Windows Executable Content filter is - available at - ftp://ftp.exim.org/pub/filter/ or here.

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. - NB this is no longer being maintained. -

The new Exim 4 + book is available. See the book website for + further information.
