+Exim version 4.63
+-----------------
+
+When an SMTP error message is specified in a "message" modifier in an ACL, or
+in a :fail: or :defer: message in a redirect router, Exim now checks the start
+of the message for an SMTP error code. This consists of three digits followed
+by a space, optionally followed by an extended code of the form n.n.n, also
+followed by a space. If this is the case and the very first digit is the same
+as the default error code, the code from the message is used instead. If the
+very first digit is incorrect, a panic error is logged, and the default code is
+used. This is an incompatible change, but it is not expected to affect many (if
+any) configurations. It is possible to suppress the use of the supplied code in
+a redirect router by setting the smtp_error_code option false. In this case,
+any SMTP code is quietly ignored.
