This document describes *changes* to previous versions, that might

+HS/03 Bug 2392: exigrep does case sensitive *option* processing (as it
did for all versions <4.90). Notably -M, -m, --invert, -I may be
affected.
JH/35 Bug 2409: filter out-of-spec chars from callout response before using
them in our smtp response.
+JH/36 Have the general router option retry_use_local_part default to true when
+ any of the restrictive preconditions are set (to anything). Previously it
+ was only for check_local user. The change removes one item of manual
+ configuration which is required for proper retries when a remote router
+ handles a subset of addresses for a domain.
+
+JH/37 Appendfile: when evaluating quota use (non-quota_size_regex) take the file
+ link count into consideration.
+
+HS/04 Fix handling of very log lines in -H files. If a -<key> <value> line
+ caused the extension of big_buffer, the following lines were ignored.
+
+JH/38 Bug 1395: Teach the DNS negative-cache about TTL value from the SOA in
+ accordance with RFC 2308. Previously there was no expiry, so a longlived
+ receive process (eg. due to ACL delays) versus a short SOA value could
+ surprise.
+
+HS/05 Handle trailing backslash gracefully. (CVE-2019-15846)
+
+JH/39 Promote DMARC support to mainline.
+
+JH/40 Bug 2452: Add a References: header to DSNs.
+
+JH/41 With GnuTLS 3.6.0 (and later) do not attempt to manage Diffie-Hellman
+ parameters. The relevant library call is documented as "Deprecated: This
+ function is unnecessary and discouraged on GnuTLS 3.6.0 or later. Since
+ 3.6.0, DH parameters are negotiated following RFC7919."
+
+HS/06 Change the default of dnssec_request_domains to "*"
+
+JH/42 Bug 2545: Fix CHUNKING for all RCPT commands rejected. Previously we
+ carried on and emitted a BDAT command, even when PIPELINING was not
+ active.
+
+JH/43 Bug 2465: Fix taint-handling in dsearch lookup. Previously a nontainted
+ buffer was used for the filename, resulting in a trap when tainted
+ arguments (eg. $domain) were used.
+
+JH/44 With OpenSSL 1.1.1 (onwards) disable renegotiation for TLS1.2 and below;
+ recommended to avoid a possible server-load attack. The feature can be
+ re-enabled via the openssl_options main cofiguration option.
+
+JH/45 local_scan API: documented the current smtp_printf() call. This changed
+ for version 4.90 - adding a "more data" boolean to the arguments.
+ Bumped the ABI version number also, this having been missed previously;
+ release versions 4.90 to 4.92.3 inclusive were effectively broken in
+ respect of usage of smtp_printf() by either local_scan code or libraries
+ accessed via the ${dlfunc } expansion item. Both will need coding
+ adjustment for any calls to smtp_printf() to match the new function
+ signature; a FALSE value for the new argument is always safe.
+
+JH/46 FreeBSD: fix use of the sendfile() syscall. The shim was not updating
+ the file-offset (which the Linux syscall does, and exim expects); this
+ resulted in an indefinite loop.
