+Exim version 4.98
+-----------------
+
+JH/01 Use fewer forks & execs for sending many messages to a single host.
+ By passing back more info from the transport to the delivery process,
+ we can loop there. A two-phase queue run will benefit, particularly for
+ mailinglist and smarthost cases.
+
+JH/02 Add transaction support for hintsdbs. The sole initial provider is
+ sqlite, and is used for the wait-transport and retry DBs. Transactions
+ imply locking internal to the DB. We no longer need a separate lockfile,
+ can keep the DB handle open for extended periods, yet potentially benefit
+ from concurrency on non-conflicting record uses.
+
+JH/03 With dkim_verify_minimal, avoid calling the DKIM ACL after the first
+ good verify.
+
+Exim version 4.98
+-----------------
+
+JH/01 Support list of dkim results in the dkim_status ACL condition, making
+ it more usable in the data ACL.
+
+JH/02 Bug 3040: Handle error on close of the spool data file during reception.
+ Previously This was only logged, on the assumption that errors would be
+ seen for a previous fflush(). However, a fuse filesystem has been
+ reported as showing this an error for the fclose(). The spool is now in
+ an uncertain state, and we have logged and responded acceptance. Change
+ this to respond with a temp-reject, wipe spoolfiles, and log the error
+ detail.
+
+JH/03 Bug 3030: Fix handling of DNS servfail respons for DANE TLSA. When hit
+ during a recipient verify callout, a QUIT command was attempted on the
+ now-closed callout channel, causing a paniclog entry.
+
+JH/04 Bug 3039: Fix handling of of an empty log_reject_target, with
+ a connection_reject log_selector, under tls_on_connect. Previously
+ with this combination, when the connect ACL rejected, a spurious
+ paniclog entry was made.
+
+JH/05 Fix TLS resumption for TLS-on-connect. This was broken by the advent
+ of loadbalancer-detection for resumption, in 4.96 - which tries to
+ use the EHLO response. SMTPS does not have one at the time it is starting
+ TLS. Change the default for the smtp transport host_name_extract option
+ to be a static string, for TLS-on-connect cases; meaning that resumption
+ will always be attempted (unless deliberately overriden).
+
+JH/06 Bug 3054: Fix dnsdb lookup for a TXT record with multiple chunks, with a
+ chunk-separator specification. This was broken by hardening introduced
+ for Bug 3031.
+
+JH/07 Bug 3050: Fix -bp for old message_id format spoolfiles. Previously it
+ included the -H with the id; this also messed up exiqgrep.
+
+JH/08 Bug 3056: Tighten up parsing of DKIM DNS records. Previously, whitespace
+ was not properly skipped and empty elements would cause mis-parsing.
+ Tighten parsing of DKIM header records. Previously, all but lowercase
+ alpha chars would be ignored in potential tag names.
+
+JH/09 Bug 3057: Add heuristic for spotting mistyped IPv6 addresses in lists
+ being searched. Previously we only had one for IPv4 addresses. Per the
+ documentation, the error results by default in a no-match result for the
+ list. It is logged if the unknown_in_list log_selector is used.
+
+JH/10 Bug 3058: Ensure that a failing expansion in a router "set" option defers
+ the routing operation. Previously it would silently stop routing the
+ message.
+
+JH/11 Bug 3046: Fix queue-runs. Previously, the arrivel of a notification or
+ info-request event close in time to a scheduled run timer could result in
+ the latter being missed, and no further queue scheduled runs being
+ initiated. This ouwld be more likely on high-load systems.
+
+JH/12 Refuse to accept a line "dot, LF" as end-of-DATA unless operating in
+ LF-only mode (as detected from the first header line). Previously we did
+ accept that in (normal) CRLF mode; this has been raised as a possible
+ attack scenario (under the name "smtp smuggling").
+
+JH/13 Add an fdatasync call for the received message data file in spool, before
+ loggging reception and sending the SMTP ack. Previously we only flushed
+ the stdio buffer so there was still the possibility of a disk error.
+
+JH/14 Bug 3061: Avoid a split log line when trying to rewrite a malformed
+ address. Previously, for the last address in a header line (commonly
+ there is only one) the terminating newline was part of the logged
+ information.
+
+JH/15 Bug 3061: Ensure a log line is written for a malformed address in a
+ header, when parsing for address-qualification. Previously one was only
+ written if there were rewrite rules.
+
+JH/16 Two-phase queue runs are now reported in the daemon startup log line and
+ in exiwhat output.
+
+JH/17 Bug 3064: Fix combination of "-q<period> -R <recipients>". Introduction of
+ the multiple-queue-runners facility for 4.97 broke this, giving only a
+ one-time run of the queue.
+
+JH/18 Bug 3068: Log a warning for use of deprecated syntax in query-style
+ lookups.
+
+JH/19 Fix TLS startup. When the last expansion done before the initiation of a
+ TLS session resulted in a forced-fail, a misleading error was logged for
+ the expansino of tls_certificates. This would affect the common case of
+ that option being set (main-section options) but not having any variable
+ parts. It could also potentially affect tls_privatekeys. The underlyding
+ coding errors go back to 4.90 but were only exposed in 4.97.
+
+JH/20 Bug 3047: A recent (somewhere between 10.34 and 10.42) version of the
+ pcre2 library starting allocating 20kB rather than 112 bytes per match
+ call, which broke the 2GB total limitation on Exim's memory management
+ when a user had over 104207 messages stored and the appendfile
+ maildir_quota_directory_regex option is in use. Release the allocated
+ memory every thosand files to avoid this.
+ The same issue arises with the ACL regex condition, which is applied
+ to every line of a received message.
+
+JH/21 Bug 3059: Fix crash in smtp transport. When running for a message for
+ which all recipients had been handled (itself an issue) a null-pointer
+ deref was done on trying to write a retry record. Fix that by counting
+ the outstanding recipients before trying to transmit the message.
+ The situation arose for a second MX try within a transport run, when the
+ first had perm-rejected a recipient (the only one for the connection, in
+ the case seen) during pipelining, and then closed the TCP connection.
+ The transport classified that as an I/O error, leaving the message
+ outstanding but having marked up the recipient as dealt-with. It then
+ tried another MX because of the I/O error. Fix this by converting the
+ message-level status to ok if there was a close but all recipients were
+ dealt with. Thanks to Wolfgand Breyha for debug runs.
+
+JH/22 The ESMTP_LIMITS facility (RFC 9422) is promoted from experimental status
+ and is now controlled by the build-time option DISABLE_ESMTP_LIMITS.
+
+JH/23 Bug 3066: Avoid leaking lookup database credentials to log.
+
+JH/24 Bug 3081: Fix a delivery process crash. When the router "errors_to"
+ option specified a fixed address, later rewriting on that address would
+ trip on the configuration data being readonly. Instead of modifying
+ in-place, copy data. Found and fixed by Peter Benie.
+
+JH/25 Bug 3079: Fix crash in dbmnz. When a key was present for zero-length
+ data a null pointer was followed. Find and testcase by Sebastian Bugge.
+
+JH/26 Fix encoding for an AUTH parameter on a MAIL FROM command. Previously
+ decimal 127 chars were not encoded, and lowercase hex was used for
+ encoded values. Outstanding since at least 1999.
+
+JH/27 Fix crash in logging. When a message with a large number of recipients
+ had been received, and logging of recipients is enabled, the buffer used
+ for logging could reach limit. A read using a null pointer would then
+ be done, resulting in a crash of the receiving process before an SMTP
+ ACK for the message was returned to the sending system. Duplicate
+ messages were created as a result.
+ Find and debug help by Mateusz Krawczyk
+
+JH/28 Bug 3086: Fix exinext for ipv6. Change the format of keys in the retry
+ DB, wrapping transport record bare-ip "host names" and ipv6
+ "host addresses" in square-brackets. This makes the parsing that
+ exinext does more reliable.
+
+JH/29 Bug 3087: Fix SRS encode. A zero-length quoted element in the local-part
+ would cause a crash.
+
+JH/30 Bug 3029: Avoid feeding Resent-From: to DMARC.
+
+JH/31 Bug 3027: For -bh / -bhc tests change to using the compressed form of
+ ipv6 addresses for the sender. Previously the uncompressed form was used,
+ and if used in textual form this would result in behavior difference
+ versus non-bh.
+
+JH/32 Bug 3096: MAIL before HELO/EHLO, where required by hosts_require_helo, is
+ now classed as a protocol error and subject to smtp_max_synprot_errors.
+
+JH/33 Bug 2994: A subdir dsearch lookup should permit a directory name that starts
+ ".." and has following characters.
+
+JH/34 Fix delivery ordering for 2-phase queue run combined with
+ queue_run_in_order.
+
+JH/35 Bug 3099: fix parsing of MIME filename= split over multiple paramemters.
+ Previously the $mime_filename variable would have an incorrect value.
+ While in the code, extend coverage to name= which previously was only
+ supported for single parameters, despite also filling in $mime_filename.
