+Since version 4.98
+------------------
+
+JH/01 Use fewer forks & execs for sending many messages to a single host.
+      By passing back the next message-id 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 sole initial provider is
+      sqlite, and is used for the wait-trasnprot DB. Transactions imply
+      locking internal to the DB. We no longer need a separate lockfile, can
+      keep the DB handle open for extended periods, and still potentially
+      benefit from concurrency on non-conlicting record uses.

+JH/26 Fix encoding for an AUTH parameter on a MAIL FROM command.  Previously
+      decimal 127 chars were not encoded, and lowercase hex was used for
+      encoded values.  Outstanding since at least 1999.
+
+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.
