 New Features in Exim

     The same effect could be achieved by wrapping the lookup in ${tr...}; this
     feature is just a syntactic simplification.
 
+15. It is now possible to supply a list of domains and/or IP addresses to be
+    lookup up in a DNS blacklist. Previously, only a single domain name could
+    be given, for example:
+
+      dnslists = black.list.tld/$sender_host_name
+
+    What follows the slash can now be a list. As with all lists, the default
+    separator is a colon. However, because this is a sublist within the list of
+    DNS blacklist domains, it is necessary either to double the separators like
+    this:
+
+      dnslists = black.list.tld/name.1::name.2
+
+    or to change the separator character, like this:
+
+      dnslists = black.list.tld/<;name.1;name.2
+
+    If an item in the list is an IP address, it is inverted before the DNS
+    blacklist domain is appended. If it is not an IP address, no inversion
+    occurs. Consider this condition:
+
+       dnslists = black.list.tls/<;192.168.1.2;a.domain
+
+    The DNS lookups that occur are for
+
+       2.1.168.192.black.list.tld  and  a.domain.black.list.tld
+
+    Once a DNS record has been found (that matches a specific IP return
+    address, if specified), no further lookups are done.
+
+16. The log selector queue_time_overall causes Exim to output the time spent on
+    the queue as an addition to the "Completed" message. Like queue_time (which
+    puts the queue time on individual delivery lines), the time is tagged with
+    "QT=", and it is measured from the time that the message starts to be
+    received, so it includes the reception time.
