New Features in Exim
--------------------
Version 4.72
------------
+ 1. TWO SECURITY FIXES: one relating to mail-spools which are globally
+ writable, the other to locking of MBX folders (not mbox).
+
+ 2. MySQL stored procedures are now supported.
+
+ 3. The dkim_domain transport option is now a list, not a single string, and
+ messages will be signed for each element in the list (discarding
+ duplicates).
+
+ 4. The 4.70 release unexpectedly changed the behaviour of dnsdb TXT lookups
+ in the presence of multiple character strings within the RR. Prior to 4.70,
+ only the first string would be returned. The dnsdb lookup now, by default,
+ preserves the pre-4.70 semantics, but also now takes an extended output
+ separator specification. The separator can be followed by a semicolon, to
+ concatenate the individual text strings together with no join character,
+ or by a comma and a second separator character, in which case the text
+ strings within a TXT record are joined on that second character.
+ Administrators are reminded that DNS provides no ordering guarantees
+ between multiple records in an RRset. For example:
+
+ foo.example. IN TXT "a" "b" "c"
+ foo.example. IN TXT "d" "e" "f"
+
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/ txt=foo.example}} -> "a/d"
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/; txt=foo.example}} -> "def/abc"
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/,+ txt=foo.example}} -> "a+b+c/d+e+f"
+
Version 4.70 / 4.71
-------------------
1. Native DKIM support without an external library.
+ (Note that if no action to prevent it is taken, a straight upgrade will
+ result in DKIM verification of all signed incoming emails. See spec
+ for details on conditionally disabling)
2. Experimental DCC support via dccifd (contributed by Wolfgang Breyha).
