Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
+Exim version 4.60
+-----------------
+
+PH/01 Two changes to the default runtime configuration:
+
+ (1) Move the checks for relay_from_hosts and authenticated clients from
+ after to before the (commented out) DNS black list checks.
+
+ (2) Add control=submission to the relay_from_hosts and authenticated
+ clients checks, on the grounds that messages accepted by these
+ statements are most likely to be submissions.
+
+PH/02 Several tidies to the handling of ${prvs and ${prvscheck:
+
+ (1) Generate an error if the third argument for the ${prvs expansion is
+ not a single digit.
+
+ (2) Treat a missing third argument of ${prvscheck as if it were an empty
+ string.
+
+ (3) Reset the variables that are obtained from the first argument of
+ ${prvscheck and used in the second argument before leaving the code,
+ because their memory is reclaimed, so using them afterwards may do
+ silly things.
+
+ (4) Tidy up the code for expanding the arguments of ${prvscheck one by
+ one (it's much easier than Tom thought :-).
+
+ (5) Because of (4), we can now allow for the use of $prvscheck_result
+ inside the third argument.
+
+PH/03 For some reason, the default setting of PATH when running a command from
+ a pipe transport was just "/usr/bin". I have changed it to
+ "/bin:/usr/bin".
+
+PH/04 SUPPORT_TRANSLATE_IP_ADDRESS and MOVE_FROZEN_MESSAGES did not cause
+ anything to be listed in the output from -bV.
+
+PH/05 When a filter generated an autoreply, the entire To: header line was
+ quoted in the delivery log line, like this:
+
+ => >A.N.Other <ano@some.domain> <original@ddress> ...
+
+ This has been changed so that it extracts the operative address. There
+ may be more than one such address. If so, they are comma-separated, like
+ this:
+
+ => >ano@some.domain,ona@other.domain <original@ddress> ...
+
+PH/06 When a client host used a correct literal IP address in a HELO or EHLO
+ command, (for example, EHLO [1.2.3.4]) and the client's IP address was
+ not being looked up in the rDNS to get a host name, Exim was showing the
+ IP address twice in Received: lines, even though the IP addresses were
+ identical. For example:
+
+ Received: from [1.2.3.4] (helo=[1.2.3.4])
+
+ However, if the real host name was known, it was omitting the HELO data
+ if it matched the actual IP address. This has been tidied up so that it
+ doesn't show the same IP address twice.
+
+PH/07 When both +timestamp and +memory debugging was on, the value given by
+ $tod_xxx expansions could be wrong, because the tod_stamp() function was
+ called by the debug printing, thereby overwriting the timestamp buffer.
+ Debugging no longer uses the tod_stamp() function when +timestamp is set.
+
+PH/08 When the original message was included in an autoreply transport, it
+ always said "this is a copy of the message, including all the headers",
+ even if body_only or headers_only was set. It now gives an appropriate
+ message.
+
+PH/09 Applied a patch from the Sieve maintainer which:
+
+ o fixes some comments
+ o adds the (disabled) notify extension core
+ o adds some debug output for the result of if/elsif tests
+ o points to the current vacation draft in the documentation
+ and documents the missing references header update
+
+ and most important:
+
+ o fixes a bug in processing the envelope test (when testing
+ multiple envelope elements, the last element determinted the
+ result)
+
+
+Exim version 4.54
+-----------------
+
+PH/01 The ${base62: operator adjusted itself to base 36 when BASE_62 was
+ set to 36 (for Darwin and Cygwin), but the ${base62d: operator did not.
+ It now does.
+
+PH/02 Two minor problems detected in Cygwin: the os.{c,h} files had lost */ on
+ the CVS lines, and there was a missing #if HAVE_IPV6 in host.c.
+
+PH/03 Typo: missing ".o" in src/pcre/Makefile.
+
+PH/04 Tighten up "personal" tests: Instead of testing for any "List-"
+ header line, restrict the check to what is listed in RFCs 2369 and 2929.
+ Also, for "Auto-Submitted", treat anything other than "no" as
+ non-personal, in accordance with RFC 3834. (Previously it treated
+ anything starting "auto-" as non-personal.)
+
+TF/01 The control=submission/name=... option had a problem with syntax
+ errors if the name included a slash character. The /name= option
+ now slurps the rest of the string, so it can include any characters
+ but it must come last in the list of options (after /sender_retain
+ or /domain=).
+
+PH/05 Some modifications to the interface to the fake nameserver for the new
+ testing suite.
+
+
Exim version 4.53
-----------------
search_parents which are the other dnslookup options that can cause
header rewrites.
+PH/49 Michael Haardt's randomized retrying, but as a separate retry parameter
+ type ("H").
+
+PH/50 Make never_users, trusted_users, admin_groups, trusted_groups expandable.
+
+TF/07 Exim produced the error message "an SRV record indicated no SMTP
+ service" if it encountered an MX record with an empty target hostname.
+ The message is now "an MX or SRV record indicated no SMTP service".
+
+TF/08 Change PH/13 introduced the possibility that verify=helo may defer,
+ if the DNS of the sending site is misconfigured. This is quite a
+ common situation. This change restores the behaviour of treating a
+ helo verification defer as a failure.
+
+PH/51 If self=fail was set on a router, the bounce message did not include the
+ actual error message.
+
