Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
host was specified on an smtp transport, and looking it up yielded more
than one IP address.
+31. Re-factored the code for checking spool and log partition space into a
+ function that finds that data and another that does the check. The former
+ is then used to implement four new variables: $spool_space, $log_space,
+ $spool_inodes, and $log_inodes.
+
+32. The RFC2047 encoding function was originally intended for short strings
+ such as real names; it was not keeping to the 75-character limit for
+ encoded words that the RFC imposes. It now respects the limit, and
+ generates multiple encoded words if necessary. To be on the safe side, I
+ have increased the buffer size for the ${rfc2047: expansion operator from
+ 1024 to 2048 bytes.
+
+33. It is now permitted to omit both strings after an "if" condition; if the
+ condition is true, the result is "true". As before, when the second string
+ is omitted, a false condition yields an empty string. This makes it less
+ cumbersome to write custom ACL and router conditions.
+
+34. Failure to deliver a bounce message always caused it to be frozen, even if
+ there was an errors_to setting on the router. The errors_to setting is now
+ respected.
+
+35. If an IPv6 address is given for -bh or -bhc, it is now converted to the
+ canonical form (fully expanded) before being placed in
+ $sender_host_address.
+
+36. The table in the code that translates DNS record types into text (T_A to
+ "A" for instance) was missing entries for NS and CNAME. It is just possible
+ that this could have caused confusion if both these types were looked up
+ for the same domain, because the text type is used as part of Exim's
+ per-process caching. But the chance of anyone hitting this buglet seems
+ very small.
+
+37. The dnsdb lookup has been extended in a number of ways.
+
+ (1) There is a new type, "zns", which walks up the domain tree until it
+ finds some nameserver records. It should be used with care.
+
+ (2) It is now possible to give a list of domains (or IP addresses) to be
+ looked up.
+
+ (3) It is now possible to specify the separator character for use when
+ multiple records are returned.
+
