 Exim version 4.98
 -----------------
 
 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 providers supported are tdb and
+      sqlite. Transactions are used for the wait-transport and retry DBs.
+      They 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.
+
+JH/04 Remove the docs and support scripts dealing with conversion of Exim
+      version 3 installations.
+
+JH/05 Fix hintsdb support for dbmjz when compiled using sqlite3. Previously
+      the backend support assumed keys would be simple C strings, but dbmjz
+      uses keys with embedded NUL bytes.  The builtin hintsdb use is unaffected,
+      but installations using dbmjz will need to rebuild those DBs.
+
+JH/06 Bug 1141: When operating a continued-connection transport, verify that
+      the interface option, if specified, evaluates to match the connection.
+      Previously, a queued message for the same host was sent without checking.
+
+JH/07 Bug 3106: Fix coding in SPA authenticator. A macro argument was not
+      properly parenthesized, resulting in a logic error.  While the simple
+      fix was provided by Andrew Aitchison, the over-large code block resulting
+      from this macro made me want to replace it with a real function so more
+      extensive rework becamse needed.
+
+JH/08 The output of "exim -bV" now includes lookup types built as dynamic-load
+      modules.
+
+JH/09 Not a change, but worthy of note: There is no test coverage of the
+      heimdall-gssapi authenticator driver.  It does build, though with (on at
+      least one platform) library version conflicts with the gsasl auth
+      driver).  Confidence in its operation is lacking.
+
+JH/10 Bug 3108: On platforms not providing strchrnul() [OpenBSD] supply a proper
+      prototype (as well as implementaton).  Previously, a return type "int"
+      was assumed, resulting in type-conversion bugs when int and pointer had
+      different size.  This resulted in crashes while processing DKIM signatures
+      of received messages.  Identification and fix from Qualys Security.
+
+JH/11 Lookups built as dynamic-load modules which support a single lookup
+      type are now only loaded if required by the config. Previously all lookup
+      modules present in the modules directory were loaded; this now applies
+      only to those supporting multiple types.
+
+JH/12 Bug 3112: Fix logging of config-file position for "obsolete lookup
+      syntax". Previously, the end of the top-level file was reported.

 JH/01 Support list of dkim results in the dkim_status ACL condition, making
       it more usable in the data ACL.

+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.

+
+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.
