This document contains detailed information about incompatibilities that might
be encountered when upgrading from one release of Exim to another. The
that might affect a running system.
+Exim version 4.61
+-----------------
+
+1. The default number of ACL variables of each type has been increased to 20,
+and it's possible to compile Exim with more. You can safely upgrade to this
+release if you already have messages on the queue with saved ACL variable
+values. However, if you downgrade from this release with messages on the queue,
+any saved ACL values they may have will be lost.
+
+2. The default value for rfc1413_query_timeout has been changed from 30s to 5s.
+
+
+Exim version 4.54
+-----------------
+
+There was a problem with 4.52/TF/02 in that a "name=" option on control=
+submission terminated at the next slash, thereby not allowing for slashes in
+the name. This has been changed so that "name=" takes the rest of the string as
+its data. It must therefore be the last option.
+
+
+Version 4.53
+------------
+
+If you are using the experimental Domain Keys support, you must upgrade to
+at least libdomainkeys 0.67 in order to run this release of Exim.
+
+
Version 4.51
------------
-The format in which GnuTLS parameters are cached (in the file gnutls-params in
-the spool directory) has been changed. The new format can also be generated
+1. The format in which GnuTLS parameters are cached (in the file gnutls-params
+in the spool directory) has been changed. The new format can also be generated
externally, so it is now possible to update the values from outside Exim. This
has been implemented in an upwards, BUT NOT downwards, compatible manner.
Upgrading should be seamless: when Exim finds that it cannot understand an
you MUST delete the gnutls-params file in the spool directory, because the
older Exim will not recognize the new format.
+2. When doing a callout as part of verifying an address, Exim was not paying
+attention to any local part prefix or suffix that was matched by the router
+that accepted the address. It now behaves in the same way as it does for
+delivery: the affixes are removed from the local part unless
+rcpt_include_affixes is set on the transport. If you have a configuration that
+uses prefixes or suffixes on addresses that could be used for callouts, and you
+want the affixes to be retained, you must make sure that rcpt_include_affixes
+is set on the transport.
+
+3. Bounce and delay warning messages no longer contain details of delivery
+errors, except for explicit messages (e.g. generated by :fail:) and SMTP
+responses from remote hosts.
