Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
TF/03 Added the control = fakedefer ACL modifier.
-TF/04 Added the ratelimit ACL condition. See NewStuff for details.
+TF/04 Added the ratelimit ACL condition. See NewStuff for details. Thanks to
+ Mark Lowes for thorough testing.
TK/02 Rewrote SPF support to work with libspf2 versions >1.2.0.
message has one envelope recipient. SA can use these headers,
obviously out-of-the-box. Patch from Alex Miller.
+PH/08 The ${def test on a variable was returning false if the variable's
+ value was "0", contrary to what the specification has always said!
+ The result should be true unless the variable is empty.
+
+PH/09 The syntax error of a character other than { following "${if
+ def:variable_name" (after optional whitespace) was not being diagnosed.
+ An expansion such as ${if def:sender_ident:{xxx}{yyy}} in which an
+ accidental colon was present, for example, could give incorrect results.
+
+PH/10 Tidied the code in a number of places where the st_size field of a stat()
+ result is used (not including appendfile, where other changes are about
+ to be made).
+
+PH/11 Upgraded appendfile so that quotas larger than 2G are now supported.
+ This involved changing a lot of size variables from int to off_t. It
+ should work with maildirs and everything.
+
+TK/08 Apply fix provided by Michael Haardt to prevent deadlock in case of
+ spamd dying while we are connected to it.
+
+TF/05 Fixed a ${extract error message typo reported by Jeremy Harris
+ <jgh@wizmail.org>
+
+PH/12 Applied Alex Kiernan's patch for the API change for the error callback
+ function for BDB 4.3.
+
+PH/13 Changed auto_thaw such that it does not apply to bounce messages.
+
+PH/14 Imported PCRE 6.0; this was more than just a trivial operation because
+ the sources for PCRE have been re-arranged and more files are now
+ involved.
+
+PH/15 The code I had for printing potentially long long variables in PH/11
+ above was not the best (it lost precision). The length of off_t variables
+ is now inspected at build time, and an appropriate printing format (%ld
+ or %lld) is chosen and #defined by OFF_T_FMT. We also define ASSUME_
+ LONG_LONG_SUPPORT if the length is greater than 4. This is needed for the
+ internal formatting function string_vformat().
+
+PH/16 Applied Matthew Newton's patch to exicyclog: "If log_file_path is set in
+ the configuration file to be ":syslog", then the script "guesses" where
+ the logs files are, rather than using the compiled in default. In our
+ case the guess is not the same as the compiled default, so the script
+ suddenly stopped working when I started to use syslog. The patch checks
+ to see if log_file_path is "". If so, it attempts to read it from exim
+ with no configuration file to get the compiled in version, before it
+ falls back to the previous guessing code."
+
Exim version 4.51
