Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
1.2.3.4 without a mask. Now it is not recognized as an IP address, and
PH/23 above applies.
+PH/25 Do not write to syslog when running in the test harness. The only
+ occasion when this arises is a failure to open the main or panic logs
+ (for which there is an explicit test).
+
+PH/26 Added the /no_tell option to "control=freeze".
+
+PH/27 If a host name lookup failed very early in a connection, for example, if
+ the IP address matched host_lookup and the reverse lookup yielded a name
+ that did not have a forward lookup, an error message of the form "no IP
+ address found for host xxx.xxx.xxx (during SMTP connection from NULL)"
+ could be logged. Now it outputs the IP address instead of "NULL".
+
+PH/28 An enabling patch from MH: add new function child_open_exim2() which
+ allows the sender and the authenticated sender to be set when
+ submitting a message from within Exim. Since child_open_exim() is
+ documented for local_scan(), the new function should be too.
+
+PH/29 In GnuTLS, a forced expansion failure for tls_privatekey was not being
+ ignored. In both GnuTLS and OpenSSL, an expansion of tls_privatekey that
+ results in an empty string is now treated as unset.
+
+PH/30 Fix eximon buffer overflow bug (Bugzilla #73).
+
+PH/31 Added sender_verify_fail logging option.
+
+PH/32 In November 2003, the code in Exim that added an empty Bcc: header when
+ needed by RFC 822 but not by RFC 2822 was commented out. I have now
+ tidied the source and removed it altogether.
+
+PH/33 When a queue run was abandoned because the load average was too high, a
+ log line was always written; now it is written only if the queue_run log
+ selector is set. In addition, the log line for abandonment now contains
+ information about the queue run such as the pid. This is always present
+ in "start" and "stop" lines but was omitted from the "abandon" line.
+
+PH/34 Omit spaces between a header name and the colon in the error message that
+ is given when verify = headers_syntax fails (if there are lots of them,
+ the message gets confusing).
+
+PH/35 Change the default for dns_check_names_pattern to allow slashes within
+ names, as there are now some PTR records that contain slashes. This check
+ is only to protect against broken name servers that fall over on strange
+ characters, so the fact that it applies to all lookups doesn't matter.
+
+PH/36 Now that the new test suite is complete, we can remove some of the
+ special code in Exim that was needed for the old test suite. For example,
+ sorting DNS records because real resolvers return them in an arbitrary
+ order. The new test suite's fake resolver always returns records in the
+ same order.
+
+PH/37 When running in the test harness, use -odi for submitted messages (e.g.
+ bounces) except when queue_only is set, to avoid logging races between
+ the different processes.
+
+PH/38 Panic-die if .include specifies a non-absolute path.
+
+PH/39 A tweak to the "H" retry rule from its user.
Exim version 4.60
