Current Versions

+ The current version of Exim is 4.34. 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. +

+ +

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.

+ +

Mailman

+ +

The Exim/Mailman HOWTO for + Mailman 2.1 with Exim 4 has been rewritten.

+ +

Exim Books

+ +

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

The O'Reilly Exim 3 + book is still available.
