New Features in Exim
--------------------
-This file contains descriptions of new features that have been added to Exim,
-but have not yet made it into the main manual (which is most conveniently
-updated when there is a relatively large batch of changes). The doc/ChangeLog
-file contains a listing of all changes, including bug fixes.
-
-Exim version 4.53
------------------
-
-TK/01 Added the "success_on_redirect" address verification option. When an
- address generates new addresses during routing, Exim will abort
- verification with "success" when more than one address has been
- generated, but continue to verify a single new address. The latter
- does not happen when the new "success_on_redirect" option is set, like
-
- require verify = recipient/success_on_redirect/callout=10s
-
- In that case, verification will succeed when a router generates a new
- address.
-
-
-Exim version 4.52
------------------
-
-TF/01 Support for checking Client SMTP Authorization has been added. CSA is a
- system which allows a site to advertise which machines are and are not
- permitted to send email. This is done by placing special SRV records in
- the DNS, which are looked up using the client's HELO domain. At this
- time CSA is still an Internet-Draft.
-
- Client SMTP Authorization checks are performed by the ACL condition
- verify=csa. This will fail if the client is not authorized. If there is
- a DNS problem, or if no valid CSA SRV record is found, or if the client
- is authorized, the condition succeeds. These three cases can be
- distinguished using the expansion variable $csa_status, which can take
- one of the values "fail", "defer", "unknown", or "ok". The condition
- does not itself defer because that would be likely to cause problems
- for legitimate email.
-
- The error messages produced by the CSA code include slightly more
- detail. If $csa_status is "defer" this may be because of problems
- looking up the CSA SRV record, or problems looking up the CSA target
- address record. There are four reasons for $csa_status being "fail":
- the client's host name is explicitly not authorized; the client's IP
- address does not match any of the CSA target IP addresses; the client's
- host name is authorized but it has no valid target IP addresses (e.g.
- the target's addresses are IPv6 and the client is using IPv4); or the
- client's host name has no CSA SRV record but a parent domain has
- asserted that all subdomains must be explicitly authorized.
-
- The verify=csa condition can take an argument which is the domain to
- use for the DNS query. The default is verify=csa/$sender_helo_name.
-
- This implementation includes an extension to CSA. If the query domain
- is an address literal such as [192.0.2.95], or if it is a bare IP
- address, Exim will search for CSA SRV records in the reverse DNS as if
- the HELO domain was e.g. 95.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa. Therefore it is
- meaningful to say, for example, verify=csa/$sender_host_address - in
- fact, this is the check that Exim performs if the client does not say
- HELO. This extension can be turned off by setting the main
- configuration option dns_csa_use_reverse = false.
-
- If a CSA SRV record is not found for the domain itself, then a search
- is performed through its parent domains for a record which might be
- making assertions about subdomains. The maximum depth of this search is
- limited using the main configuration option dns_csa_search_limit, which
- takes the value 5 by default. Exim does not look for CSA SRV records in
- a top level domain, so the default settings handle HELO domains as long
- as seven (hostname.five.four.three.two.one.com) which encompasses the
- vast majority of legitimate HELO domains.
-
- The dnsdb lookup also has support for CSA. Although dnsdb already
- supports SRV lookups, this is not sufficient because of the extra
- parent domain search behaviour of CSA, and (as with PTR lookups)
- dnsdb also turns IP addresses into lookups in the reverse DNS space.
- The result of ${lookup dnsdb {csa=$sender_helo_name} } has two
- space-separated fields: an authorization code and a target host name.
- The authorization code can be "Y" for yes, "N" for no, "X" for explicit
- authorization required but absent, or "?" for unknown.
-
-PH/01 The amount of output produced by the "make" process has been reduced,
- because the compile lines are often rather long, making it all pretty
- unreadable. The new style is along the lines of the 2.6 Linux kernel:
- just a short line for each module that is being compiled or linked.
- However, it is still possible to get the full output, by calling "make"
- like this:
-
- FULLECHO='' make -e
-
- The value of FULLECHO defaults to "@", the flag character that suppresses
- command reflection in "make". When you ask for the full output, it is
- given in addition to the the short output.
-
-TF/02 There have been two changes concerned with submission mode:
-
- Until now submission mode always left the return path alone, whereas
- locally-submitted messages from untrusted users have the return path
- fixed to the user's email address. Submission mode now fixes the return
- path to the same address as is used to create the Sender: header. If
- /sender_retain is specified then both the Sender: header and the return
- path are left alone.
-
- Note that the changes caused by submission mode take effect after the
- predata ACL. This means that any sender checks performed before the
- fix-ups will use the untrusted sender address specified by the user, not
- the trusted sender address specified by submission mode. Although this
- might be slightly unexpected, it does mean that you can configure ACL
- checks to spot that a user is trying to spoof another's address, for
- example.
-
- There is also a new /name= option for submission mode which allows you
- to specify the user's full name to be included in the Sender: header.
- For example:
-
- accept authenticated = *
- control = submission/name=${lookup {$authenticated_id} \
- lsearch {/etc/exim/namelist} }
-
- The namelist file contains entries like
-
- fanf: Tony Finch
-
- And the resulting Sender: header looks like
-
- Sender: Tony Finch <fanf@exim.org>
-
-TF/03 The control = fakereject ACL modifier now has a fakedefer counterpart,
- which works in exactly the same way except it causes a fake SMTP 450
- response after the message data instead of a fake SMTP 550 response.
- You must take care when using fakedefer because it will cause messages
- to be duplicated when the sender retries. Therefore you should not use
- fakedefer if the message will be delivered normally.
-
-TF/04 There is a new ratelimit ACL condition which can be used to measure
- and control the rate at which clients can send email. This is more
- powerful than the existing smtp_ratelimit_* options, because those
- options only control the rate of commands in a single SMTP session,
- whereas the new ratelimit condition works across all connections
- (concurrent and sequential) to the same host.
-
- The syntax of the ratelimit condition is:
-
- ratelimit = <m> / <p> / <options> / <key>
-
- If the average client sending rate is less than m messages per time
- period p then the condition is false, otherwise it is true.
-
- The parameter p is the smoothing time constant, in the form of an Exim
- time interval e.g. 8h for eight hours. A larger time constant means it
- takes Exim longer to forget a client's past behaviour. The parameter m is
- the maximum number of messages that a client can send in a fast burst. By
- increasing both m and p but keeping m/p constant, you can allow a client
- to send more messages in a burst without changing its overall sending
- rate limit. Conversely, if m and p are both small then messages must be
- sent at an even rate.
-
- The key is used to look up the data used to calcluate the client's
- average sending rate. This data is stored in a database maintained by
- Exim in its spool directory alongside the retry database etc. For
- example, you can limit the sending rate of each authenticated user,
- independent of the computer they are sending from, by setting the key
- to $authenticated_id. The default key is $sender_host_address.
- Internally, Exim includes the smoothing constant p and the options in
- the lookup key because they alter the meaning of the stored data.
- This is not true for the limit m, so you can alter the configured
- maximum rate and Exim will still remember clients' past behaviour,
- but if you alter the other ratelimit parameters Exim will effectively
- forget their past behaviour.
-
- Each ratelimit condition can have up to two options. The first option
- specifies what Exim measures the rate of, and the second specifies how
- Exim handles excessively fast clients.
-
- The per_mail option means that it measures the client's rate of sending
- messages. This is the default if none of the per_* options is specified.
-
- The per_conn option means that it measures the client's connection rate.
-
- The per_byte option limits the sender's email bandwidth. Note that it
- is best to use this option in the DATA ACL; if it is used in an earlier
- ACL it relies on the SIZE parameter on the MAIL command, which may be
- inaccurate or completely missing. You can follow the limit m in the
- configuration with K, M, or G to specify limits in kilobytes,
- megabytes, or gigabytes respectively.
-
- The per_cmd option means that Exim recomputes the rate every time the
- condition is processed, which can be used to limit the SMTP command rate.
- The alias per_rcpt is provided for use in the RCPT ACL instead of per_cmd
- to make it clear that the effect is to limit the rate at which recipients
- are accepted. Note that in this case the rate limiting engine will see a
- message with many recipients as a large high-speed burst.
-
- If a client's average rate is greater than the maximum, the rate
- limiting engine can react in two possible ways, depending on the
- presence of the strict or leaky options. This is independent of the
- other counter-measures (e.g. rejecting the message) that may be
- specified by the rest of the ACL. The default mode is leaky, which
- avoids a sender's over-aggressive retry rate preventing it from getting
- any email through.
-
- The strict option means that the client's recorded rate is always
- updated. The effect of this is that Exim measures the client's average
- rate of attempts to send email, which can be much higher than the
- maximum. If the client is over the limit it will be subjected to
- counter-measures until it slows down below the maximum rate.
-
- The leaky option means that the client's recorded rate is not updated
- if it is above the limit. The effect of this is that Exim measures the
- client's average rate of successfully sent email, which cannot be
- greater than the maximum. If the client is over the limit it will
- suffer some counter-measures, but it will still be able to send email
- at the configured maximum rate, whatever the rate of its attempts.
-
- As a side-effect, the ratelimit condition will set the expansion
- variables $sender_rate containing the client's computed rate,
- $sender_rate_limit containing the configured value of m, and
- $sender_rate_period containing the configured value of p.
-
- Exim's other ACL facilities are used to define what counter-measures
- are taken when the rate limit is exceeded. This might be anything from
- logging a warning (e.g. while measuring existing sending rates in order
- to define our policy), through time delays to slow down fast senders,
- up to rejecting the message. For example,
-
- # Log all senders' rates
- warn
- ratelimit = 0 / 1h / strict
- log_message = \
- Sender rate $sender_rate > $sender_rate_limit / $sender_rate_period
-
- # Slow down fast senders
- warn
- ratelimit = 100 / 1h / per_rcpt / strict
- delay = ${eval: 10 * ($sender_rate - $sender_rate_limit) }
-
- # Keep authenticated users under control
- deny
- ratelimit = 100 / 1d / strict / $authenticated_id
-
- # System-wide rate limit
- defer
- message = Sorry, too busy. Try again later.
- ratelimit = 10 / 1s / $primary_hostname
-
- # Restrict incoming rate from each host, with a default rate limit
- # set using a macro and special cases looked up in a table.
- defer
- message = Sender rate $sender_rate exceeds \
- $sender_rate_limit messages per $sender_rate_period
- ratelimit = ${lookup {$sender_host_address} \
- cdb {DB/ratelimits.cdb} \
- {$value} {RATELIMIT} }
-
- Warning: if you have a busy server with a lot of ratelimit tests,
- especially with the per_rcpt option, you may suffer from a performance
- bottleneck caused by locking on the ratelimit hints database. Apart from
- making your ACLs less complicated, you can reduce the problem by using a
- RAM disk for Exim's hints directory, /var/spool/exim/db/. However this
- means that Exim will lose its hints data after a reboot (including retry
- hints, the callout cache, and ratelimit data).
-
-TK/01 Added an 'spf' lookup type that will return an SPF result for a given
- email address (the key) and an IP address (the database):
-
- ${lookup {tom@duncanthrax.net} spf{217.115.139.137}}
-
- The lookup will return the same result strings as they can appear in
- $spf_result (pass,fail,softfail,neutral,none,err_perm,err_temp). The
- lookup is armored in EXPERIMENTAL_SPF. Currently, only IPv4 addresses
- are supported.
-
- Patch submitted by Chris Webb <chris@arachsys.com>.
-
-PH/02 There's a new verify callout option, "fullpostmaster", which first acts
- as "postmaster" and checks the recipient <postmaster@domain>. If that
- fails, it tries just <postmaster>, without a domain, in accordance with
- the specification in RFC 2821.
-
-PH/03 The action of the auto_thaw option has been changed. It no longer applies
- to frozen bounce messages.
-
-TK/02 There are two new expansion items to help with the implementation of
- the BATV "prvs" scheme in an Exim configuration:
-
-
- ${prvs {<ADDRESS>}{<KEY>}{[KEYNUM]}}
-
- The "prvs" expansion item takes three arguments: A qualified RFC2821
- email address, a key and an (optional) key number. All arguments are
- expanded before being used, so it is easily possible to lookup a key
- and key number using the address as the lookup key. The key number is
- optional and defaults to "0". The item will expand to a "prvs"-signed
- email address, to be typically used with the "return_path" option on
- a smtp transport. The decision if BATV should be used with a given
- sender/recipient pair should be done on router level, to avoid having
- to set "max_rcpt = 1" on the transport.
-
-
- ${prvscheck {<ADDRESS>}{<SECRET>}{<RETURN_STRING>}}
-
- The "prvscheck" expansion item takes three arguments. Argument 1 is
- expanded first. When the expansion does not yield a SYNTACTICALLY
- valid "prvs"-scheme address, the whole "prvscheck" item expands to
- the empty string. If <ADDRESS> is a "prvs"-encoded address after
- expansion, two expansion variables are set up:
+This file contains descriptions of new features that have been added to Exim.
+Before a formal release, there may be quite a lot of detail so that people can
+test from the snapshots or the CVS before the documentation is updated. Once
+the documentation is updated, this file is reduced to a short list.
+
+Version 4.78
+------------
+
+ 1. New authenticator driver, "gsasl". Server-only (at present).
+ This is a SASL interface, licensed under GPL, which can be found at
+ http://www.gnu.org/software/gsasl/.
+ This system does not provide sources of data for authentication, so
+ careful use needs to be made of the conditions in Exim.
+
+ 2. New authenticator driver, "heimdal_gssapi". Server-only.
+ A replacement for using cyrus_sasl with Heimdal, now that $KRB5_KTNAME
+ is no longer honoured for setuid programs by Heimdal. Use the
+ "server_keytab" option to point to the keytab.
+
+ 3. The "pkg-config" system can now be used when building Exim to reference
+ cflags and library information for lookups and authenticators, rather
+ than having to update "CFLAGS", "AUTH_LIBS", "LOOKUP_INCLUDE" and
+ "LOOKUP_LIBS" directly. Similarly for handling the TLS library support
+ without adjusting "TLS_INCLUDE" and "TLS_LIBS".
+
+ 4. New expansion variable $tls_bits.
+
+ 5. New lookup type, "dbmjz". Key is an Exim list, the elements of which will
+ be joined together with ASCII NUL characters to construct the key to pass
+ into the DBM library. Can be used with gsasl to access sasldb2 files as
+ used by Cyrus SASL.
+
+
+Version 4.77
+------------
+
+ 1. New options for the ratelimit ACL condition: /count= and /unique=.
+ The /noupdate option has been replaced by a /readonly option.
+
+ 2. The SMTP transport's protocol option may now be set to "smtps", to
+ use SSL-on-connect outbound.
+
+ 3. New variable $av_failed, set true if the AV scanner deferred; ie, when
+ there is a problem talking to the AV scanner, or the AV scanner running.
+
+ 4. New expansion conditions, "inlist" and "inlisti", which take simple lists
+ and check if the search item is a member of the list. This does not
+ support named lists, but does subject the list part to string expansion.
+
+ 5. Unless the new EXPAND_LISTMATCH_RHS build option is set when Exim was
+ built, Exim no longer performs string expansion on the second string of
+ the match_* expansion conditions: "match_address", "match_domain",
+ "match_ip" & "match_local_part". Named lists can still be used.
- $prvscheck_address Contains the "prvs"-decoded version of
- the address from argument 1.
- $prvscheck_keynum Contains the key number extracted from
- the "prvs"-address in argument 1.
+Version 4.76
+------------
+
+ 1. The global option "dns_use_edns0" may be set to coerce EDNS0 usage on
+ or off in the resolver library.
+
+
+Version 4.75
+------------
+
+ 1. In addition to the existing LDAP and LDAP/SSL ("ldaps") support, there
+ is now LDAP/TLS support, given sufficiently modern OpenLDAP client
+ libraries. The following global options have been added in support of
+ this: ldap_ca_cert_dir, ldap_ca_cert_file, ldap_cert_file, ldap_cert_key,
+ ldap_cipher_suite, ldap_require_cert, ldap_start_tls.
+
+ 2. The pipe transport now takes a boolean option, "freeze_signal", default
+ false. When true, if the external delivery command exits on a signal then
+ Exim will freeze the message in the queue, instead of generating a bounce.
+
+ 3. Log filenames may now use %M as an escape, instead of %D (still available).
+ The %M pattern expands to yyyymm, providing month-level resolution.
- These two variables can be used in the expansion code of argument 2
- to retrieve the <SECRET>. The VALIDITY of the "prvs"-signed address
- is then checked. The result is stored in yet another expansion
- variable:
+ 4. The $message_linecount variable is now updated for the maildir_tag option,
+ in the same way as $message_size, to reflect the real number of lines,
+ including any header additions or removals from transport.
- $prvscheck_result Contains the result of a "prvscheck"
- expansion: Unset (the empty string) for
- failure, "1" for success.
+ 5. When contacting a pool of SpamAssassin servers configured in spamd_address,
+ Exim now selects entries randomly, to better scale in a cluster setup.
- The "prvscheck" expansion expands to the empty string if <ADDRESS>
- is not a SYNTACTICALLY valid "prvs"-scheme address. Otherwise,
- argument 3 defines what "prvscheck" expands to: If argument 3
- is the empty string, "prvscheck" expands to the decoded version
- of the address (no matter if it is CRYPTOGRAPHICALLY valid or not).
- If argument 3 expands to a non-empty string, "prvscheck" expands
- to that string.
+Version 4.74
+------------
+
+ 1. SECURITY FIX: privilege escalation flaw fixed. On Linux (and only Linux)
+ the flaw permitted the Exim run-time user to cause root to append to
+ arbitrary files of the attacker's choosing, with the content based
+ on content supplied by the attacker.
- Usage example
- -------------
+ 2. Exim now supports loading some lookup types at run-time, using your
+ platform's dlopen() functionality. This has limited platform support
+ and the intention is not to support every variant, it's limited to
+ dlopen(). This permits the main Exim binary to not be linked against
+ all the libraries needed for all the lookup types.
- Macro:
- PRVSCHECK_SQL = ${lookup mysql{SELECT secret FROM batv_prvs WHERE \
- sender='${quote_mysql:$prvscheck_address}'}{$value}}
+Version 4.73
+------------
- RCPT ACL:
+ NOTE: this version is not guaranteed backwards-compatible, please read the
+ items below carefully
+
+ 1. A new main configuration option, "openssl_options", is available if Exim
+ is built with SSL support provided by OpenSSL. The option allows
+ administrators to specify OpenSSL options to be used on connections;
+ typically this is to set bug compatibility features which the OpenSSL
+ developers have not enabled by default. There may be security
+ consequences for certain options, so these should not be changed
+ frivolously.
+
+ 2. A new pipe transport option, "permit_coredumps", may help with problem
+ diagnosis in some scenarios. Note that Exim is typically installed as
+ a setuid binary, which on most OSes will inhibit coredumps by default,
+ so that safety mechanism would have to be overridden for this option to
+ be able to take effect.
+
+ 3. ClamAV 0.95 is now required for ClamAV support in Exim, unless
+ Local/Makefile sets: WITH_OLD_CLAMAV_STREAM=yes
+ Note that this switches Exim to use a new API ("INSTREAM") and a future
+ release of ClamAV will remove support for the old API ("STREAM").
+
+ The av_scanner option, when set to "clamd", now takes an optional third
+ part, "local", which causes Exim to pass a filename to ClamAV instead of
+ the file content. This is the same behaviour as when clamd is pointed at
+ a Unix-domain socket. For example:
+
+ av_scanner = clamd:192.0.2.3 1234:local
+
+ ClamAV's ExtendedDetectionInfo response format is now handled.
+
+ 4. There is now a -bmalware option, restricted to admin users. This option
+ takes one parameter, a filename, and scans that file with Exim's
+ malware-scanning framework. This is intended purely as a debugging aid
+ to ensure that Exim's scanning is working, not to replace other tools.
+ Note that the ACL framework is not invoked, so if av_scanner references
+ ACL variables without a fallback then this will fail.
+
+ 5. There is a new expansion operator, "reverse_ip", which will reverse IP
+ addresses; IPv4 into dotted quad, IPv6 into dotted nibble. Examples:
+
+ ${reverse_ip:192.0.2.4}
+ -> 4.2.0.192
+ ${reverse_ip:2001:0db8:c42:9:1:abcd:192.0.2.3}
+ -> 3.0.2.0.0.0.0.c.d.c.b.a.1.0.0.0.9.0.0.0.2.4.c.0.8.b.d.0.1.0.0.2
+
+ 6. There is a new ACL control called "debug", to enable debug logging.
+ This allows selective logging of certain incoming transactions within
+ production environments, with some care. It takes two options, "tag"
+ and "opts"; "tag" is included in the filename of the log and "opts"
+ is used as per the -d<options> command-line option. Examples, which
+ don't all make sense in all contexts:
+
+ control = debug
+ control = debug/tag=.$sender_host_address
+ control = debug/opts=+expand+acl
+ control = debug/tag=.$message_exim_id/opts=+expand
+
+ 7. It has always been implicit in the design and the documentation that
+ "the Exim user" is not root. src/EDITME said that using root was
+ "very strongly discouraged". This is not enough to keep people from
+ shooting themselves in the foot in days when many don't configure Exim
+ themselves but via package build managers. The security consequences of
+ running various bits of network code are severe if there should be bugs in
+ them. As such, the Exim user may no longer be root. If configured
+ statically, Exim will refuse to build. If configured as ref:user then Exim
+ will exit shortly after start-up. If you must shoot yourself in the foot,
+ then henceforth you will have to maintain your own local patches to strip
+ the safeties off.
+
+ 8. There is a new expansion operator, bool_lax{}. Where bool{} uses the ACL
+ condition logic to determine truth/failure and will fail to expand many
+ strings, bool_lax{} uses the router condition logic, where most strings
+ do evaluate true.
+ Note: bool{00} is false, bool_lax{00} is true.
+
+ 9. Routers now support multiple "condition" tests,
+
+10. There is now a runtime configuration option "tcp_wrappers_daemon_name".
+ Setting this allows an admin to define which entry in the tcpwrappers
+ config file will be used to control access to the daemon. This option
+ is only available when Exim is built with USE_TCP_WRAPPERS. The
+ default value is set at build time using the TCP_WRAPPERS_DAEMON_NAME
+ build option.
+
+11. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] The default value for system_filter_user is now
+ the Exim run-time user, instead of root.
+
+12. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY is no longer optional and
+ is forced on. This is mitigated by the new build option
+ TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST which defines a list of configuration files which
+ are trusted; one per line. If a config file is owned by root and matches
+ a pathname in the list, then it may be invoked by the Exim build-time
+ user without Exim relinquishing root privileges.
+
+13. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] The Exim user is no longer automatically
+ trusted to supply -D<Macro[=Value]> overrides on the command-line. Going
+ forward, we recommend using TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST with shim configs that
+ include the main config. As a transition mechanism, we are temporarily
+ providing a work-around: the new build option WHITELIST_D_MACROS provides
+ a colon-separated list of macro names which may be overridden by the Exim
+ run-time user. The values of these macros are constrained to the regex
+ ^[A-Za-z0-9_/.-]*$ (which explicitly does allow for empty values).
+
+
+Version 4.72
+------------
- # Bounces: drop unsigned addresses for BATV senders
- deny message = This address does not send an unsigned reverse path.
- senders = :
- recipients = +batv_recipients
+ 1. TWO SECURITY FIXES: one relating to mail-spools which are globally
+ writable, the other to locking of MBX folders (not mbox).
- # Bounces: In case of prvs-signed address, check signature.
- deny message = Invalid reverse path signature.
- senders = :
- condition = ${prvscheck {$local_part@$domain}{PRVSCHECK_SQL}{1}}
- !condition = $prvscheck_result
+ 2. MySQL stored procedures are now supported.
- Top-Level Router:
+ 3. The dkim_domain transport option is now a list, not a single string, and
+ messages will be signed for each element in the list (discarding
+ duplicates).
- batv_redirect:
- driver = redirect
- data = ${prvscheck {$local_part@$domain}{PRVSCHECK_SQL}{}}
+ 4. The 4.70 release unexpectedly changed the behaviour of dnsdb TXT lookups
+ in the presence of multiple character strings within the RR. Prior to 4.70,
+ only the first string would be returned. The dnsdb lookup now, by default,
+ preserves the pre-4.70 semantics, but also now takes an extended output
+ separator specification. The separator can be followed by a semicolon, to
+ concatenate the individual text strings together with no join character,
+ or by a comma and a second separator character, in which case the text
+ strings within a TXT record are joined on that second character.
+ Administrators are reminded that DNS provides no ordering guarantees
+ between multiple records in an RRset. For example:
- Transport (referenced by router that makes decision if
- BATV is applicable):
+ foo.example. IN TXT "a" "b" "c"
+ foo.example. IN TXT "d" "e" "f"
- external_smtp_batv:
- driver = smtp
- return_path = ${prvs {$return_path} \
- {${lookup mysql{SELECT \
- secret FROM batv_prvs WHERE \
- sender='${quote_mysql:$sender_address}'} \

-PH/04 There are two new options that control the retrying done by the daemon
- at startup when it cannot immediately bind a socket (typically because
- the socket is already in use). The default values reproduce what were
- built-in constants previously: daemon_startup_retries defines the number
- of retries after the first failure (default 9); daemon_startup_sleep
- defines the length of time to wait between retries (default 30s).
-PH/05 There is now a new ${if condition called "match_ip". It is similar to
- match_domain, etc. It must be followed by two argument strings. The first
- (after expansion) must be an IP address or an empty string. The second
- (after expansion) is a restricted host list that can match only an IP
- address, not a host name. For example:
+Version 4.70 / 4.71
+-------------------
- ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{1.2.3.4:5.6.7.8}{...}{...}}
+ 1. Native DKIM support without an external library.
+ (Note that if no action to prevent it is taken, a straight upgrade will
+ result in DKIM verification of all signed incoming emails. See spec
+ for details on conditionally disabling)
- The specific types of host list item that are permitted in the list are
- shown below. Consult the manual section on host lists for further
- details.
+ 2. Experimental DCC support via dccifd (contributed by Wolfgang Breyha).
- . An IP address, optionally with a CIDR mask.
+ 3. There is now a bool{} expansion condition which maps certain strings to
+ true/false condition values (most likely of use in conjunction with the
+ and{} expansion operator).
- . A single asterisk matches any IP address.
+ 4. The $spam_score, $spam_bar and $spam_report variables are now available
+ at delivery time.
- . An empty item matches only if the IP address is empty. This could be
- useful for testing for a locally submitted message or one from specific
- hosts in a single test such as
+ 5. exim -bP now supports "macros", "macro_list" or "macro MACRO_NAME" as
+ options, provided that Exim is invoked by an admin_user.
- ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{:4.3.2.1:...}{...}{...}}
+ 6. There is a new option gnutls_compat_mode, when linked against GnuTLS,
+ which increases compatibility with older clients at the cost of decreased
+ security. Don't set this unless you need to support such clients.
- where the first item in the list is the empty string.
+ 7. There is a new expansion operator, ${randint:...} which will produce a
+ "random" number less than the supplied integer. This randomness is
+ not guaranteed to be cryptographically strong, but depending upon how
+ Exim was built may be better than the most naive schemes.
- . The item @[] matches any of the local host's interface addresses.
+ 8. Exim now explicitly ensures that SHA256 is available when linked against
+ OpenSSL.
- . Lookups are assumed to be "net-" style lookups, even if "net-" is not
- specified. Thus, the following are equivalent:
+ 9. The transport_filter_timeout option now applies to SMTP transports too.
- ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{lsearch;/some/file}...
- ${if match_ip{$sender_host_address}{net-lsearch;/some/file}...
- You do need to specify the "net-" prefix if you want to specify a
- specific address mask, for example, by using "net24-".
+Version 4.69
+------------
-PH/06 The "+all" debug selector used to set the flags for all possible output;
- it is something that people tend to use semi-automatically when
- generating debug output for me or for the list. However, by including
- "+memory", an awful lot of output that is very rarely of interest was
- generated. I have changed this so that "+all" no longer includes
- "+memory". However, "-all" still turns everything off.
+ 1. Preliminary DKIM support in Experimental.
-Version 4.51
+Version 4.68
------------
-PH/01 The format in which GnuTLS parameters are written to the gnutls-param
- file in the spool directory has been changed. This change has been made
- to alleviate problems that some people had with the generation of the
- parameters by Exim when /dev/random was exhausted. In this situation,
- Exim would hang until /dev/random acquired some more entropy.
+ 1. The body_linecount and body_zerocount C variables are now exported in the
+ local_scan API.
+
+ 2. When a dnslists lookup succeeds, the key that was looked up is now placed
+ in $dnslist_matched. When the key is an IP address, it is not reversed in
+ this variable (though it is, of course, in the actual lookup). In simple
+ cases, for example:
+
+ deny dnslists = spamhaus.example
+
+ the key is also available in another variable (in this case,
+ $sender_host_address). In more complicated cases, however, this is not
+ true. For example, using a data lookup might generate a dnslists lookup
+ like this:
+
+ deny dnslists = spamhaus.example/<|192.168.1.2|192.168.6.7|...
+
+ If this condition succeeds, the value in $dnslist_matched might be
+ 192.168.6.7 (for example).
+
+ 3. Authenticators now have a client_condition option. When Exim is running as
+ a client, it skips an authenticator whose client_condition expansion yields
+ "0", "no", or "false". This can be used, for example, to skip plain text
+ authenticators when the connection is not encrypted by a setting such as:
+
+ client_condition = ${if !eq{$tls_cipher}{}}
+
+ Note that the 4.67 documentation states that $tls_cipher contains the
+ cipher used for incoming messages. In fact, during SMTP delivery, it
+ contains the cipher used for the delivery. The same is true for
+ $tls_peerdn.
+
+ 4. There is now a -Mvc <message-id> option, which outputs a copy of the
+ message to the standard output, in RFC 2822 format. The option can be used
+ only by an admin user.
+
+ 5. There is now a /noupdate option for the ratelimit ACL condition. It
+ computes the rate and checks the limit as normal, but it does not update
+ the saved data. This means that, in relevant ACLs, it is possible to lookup
+ the existence of a specified (or auto-generated) ratelimit key without
+ incrementing the ratelimit counter for that key.
+
+ In order for this to be useful, another ACL entry must set the rate
+ for the same key somewhere (otherwise it will always be zero).
- The new code exports and imports the DH and RSA parameters in PEM
- format. This means that the parameters can be generated externally using
- the certtool command that is part of GnuTLS.
+ Example:
- To replace the parameters with new ones, instead of deleting the file
- and letting Exim re-create it, you can generate new parameters using
- certtool and, when this has been done, replace Exim's cache file by
- renaming. The relevant commands are something like this:
+ acl_check_connect:
+ # Read the rate; if it doesn't exist or is below the maximum
+ # we update it below
+ deny ratelimit = 100 / 5m / strict / noupdate
+ log_message = RATE: $sender_rate / $sender_rate_period \
+ (max $sender_rate_limit)
- # rm -f new.params
- # touch new.params
- # chown exim:exim new.params
- # chmod 0400 new.params
- # certtool --generate-privkey --bits 512 >new.params
- # echo "" >>new.params
- # certtool --generate-dh-params --bits 1024 >> new.params
- # mv new.params params
+ [... some other logic and tests...]
- If Exim never has to generate the parameters itself, the possibility of
- stalling is removed.
+ warn ratelimit = 100 / 5m / strict / per_cmd
+ log_message = RATE UPDATE: $sender_rate / $sender_rate_period \
+ (max $sender_rate_limit)
+ condition = ${if le{$sender_rate}{$sender_rate_limit}}
-PH/02 A new expansion item for dynamically loading and calling a locally-
- written C function is now provided, if Exim is compiled with
+ accept
- EXPAND_DLFUNC=yes
+ 6. The variable $max_received_linelength contains the number of bytes in the
+ longest line that was received as part of the message, not counting the
+ line termination character(s).
- set in Local/Makefile. The facility is not included by default (a
- suitable error is given if you try to use it when it is not there.)
+ 7. Host lists can now include +ignore_defer and +include_defer, analagous to
+ +ignore_unknown and +include_unknown. These options should be used with
+ care, probably only in non-critical host lists such as whitelists.
- If you enable EXPAND_DLFUNC, you should also be aware of the new redirect
- router option forbid_filter_dlfunc. If you have unprivileged users on
- your system who are permitted to create filter files, you might want to
- set forbid_filter_dlfunc=true in the appropriate router, to stop them
- using ${dlfunc to run code within Exim.
+ 8. There's a new option called queue_only_load_latch, which defaults true.
+ If set false when queue_only_load is greater than zero, Exim re-evaluates
+ the load for each incoming message in an SMTP session. Otherwise, once one
+ message is queued, the remainder are also.
- You load and call an external function like this:
-
- ${dlfunc{/some/file}{function}{arg1}{arg2}...}
-
- Once loaded, Exim remembers the dynamically loaded object so that it
- doesn't reload the same object file in the same Exim process (but of
- course Exim does start new processes frequently).
-
- There may be from zero to eight arguments to the function. When compiling
- a local function that is to be called in this way, local_scan.h should be
- included. The Exim variables and functions that are defined by that API
- are also available for dynamically loaded functions. The function itself
- must have the following type:
-
- int dlfunction(uschar **yield, int argc, uschar *argv[])
-
- Where "uschar" is a typedef for "unsigned char" in local_scan.h. The
- function should return one of the following values:
-
- OK Success. The string that is placed in "yield" is put into
- the expanded string that is being built.
-
- FAIL A non-forced expansion failure occurs, with the error
- message taken from "yield", if it is set.
-
- FAIL_FORCED A forced expansion failure occurs, with the error message
- taken from "yield" if it is set.
-
- ERROR Same as FAIL, except that a panic log entry is written.
-
- When compiling a function that is to be used in this way with gcc,
- you need to add -shared to the gcc command. Also, in the Exim build-time
- configuration, you must add -export-dynamic to EXTRALIBS.
-
-TF/01 $received_time is a new expansion variable containing the time and date
- as a number of seconds since the start of the Unix epoch when the
- current message was received.
-
-PH/03 There is a new value for RADIUS_LIB_TYPE that can be set in
- Local/Makefile. It is RADIUSCLIENTNEW, and it requests that the new API,
- in use from radiusclient 0.4.0 onwards, be used. It does not appear to be
- possible to detect the different versions automatically.
-
-PH/04 There is a new option called acl_not_smtp_mime that allows you to scan
- MIME parts in non-SMTP messages. It operates in exactly the same way as
- acl_smtp_mime
-
-PH/05 It is now possible to redefine a macro within the configuration file.
- The macro must have been previously defined within the configuration (or
- an included file). A definition on the command line using the -D option
- causes all definitions and redefinitions within the file to be ignored.
- In other words, -D overrides any values that are set in the file.
- Redefinition is specified by using '==' instead of '='. For example:
-
- MAC1 = initial value
- ...
- MAC1 == updated value
-
- Redefinition does not alter the order in which the macros are applied to
- the subsequent lines of the configuration file. It is still the same
- order in which the macros were originally defined. All that changes is
- the macro's value. Redefinition makes it possible to accumulate values.
- For example:
-
- MAC1 = initial value
- ...
- MAC1 == MAC1 and something added
-
- This can be helpful in situations where the configuration file is built
- from a number of other files.
-
-PH/06 Macros may now be defined or redefined between router, transport,
- authenticator, or ACL definitions, as well as in the main part of the
- configuration. They may not, however, be changed within an individual
- driver or ACL, or in the local_scan, retry, or rewrite sections of the
- configuration.
-
-PH/07 $acl_verify_message is now set immediately after the failure of a
- verification in an ACL, and so is available in subsequent modifiers. In
- particular, the message can be preserved by coding like this:
+ 9. There is a new ACL, specified by acl_smtp_notquit, which is run in most
+ cases when an SMTP session ends without sending QUIT. However, when Exim
+ itself is is bad trouble, such as being unable to write to its log files,
+ this ACL is not run, because it might try to do things (such as write to
+ log files) that make the situation even worse.
- warn !verify = sender
- set acl_m0 = $acl_verify_message
+ Like the QUIT ACL, this new ACL is provided to make it possible to gather
+ statistics. Whatever it returns (accept or deny) is immaterial. The "delay"
+ modifier is forbidden in this ACL.
- Previously, $acl_verify_message was set only while expanding "message"
- and "log_message" when a very denied access.
-
-PH/08 The redirect router has two new options, sieve_useraddress and
- sieve_subaddress. These are passed to a Sieve filter to specify the :user
- and :subaddress parts of an address. Both options are unset by default.
- However, when a Sieve filter is run, if sieve_useraddress is unset, the
- entire original local part (including any prefix or suffix) is used for
- :user. An unset subaddress is treated as an empty subaddress.
-
-PH/09 Quota values can be followed by G as well as K and M.
-
-PH/10 $message_linecount is a new variable that contains the total number of
- lines in the header and body of the message. Compare $body_linecount,
- which is the count for the body only. During the DATA and
- content-scanning ACLs, $message_linecount contains the number of lines
- received. Before delivery happens (that is, before filters, routers, and
- transports run) the count is increased to include the Received: header
- line that Exim standardly adds, and also any other header lines that are
- added by ACLs. The blank line that separates the message header from the
- body is not counted. Here is an example of the use of this variable in a
- DATA ACL:
-
- deny message = Too many lines in message header
- condition = \
- ${if <{250}{${eval: $message_linecount - $body_linecount}}}
-
- In the MAIL and RCPT ACLs, the value is zero because at that stage the
- message has not yet been received.
-
-PH/11 In a ${run expansion, the variable $value (which contains the standard
- output) is now also usable in the "else" string.
-
-PH/12 In a pipe transport, although a timeout while waiting for the pipe
- process to complete was treated as a delivery failure, a timeout while
- writing the message to the pipe was logged, but erroneously treated as a
- successful delivery. Such timeouts include transport filter timeouts. For
- consistency with the overall process timeout, these timeouts are now
- treated as errors, giving rise to delivery failures by default. However,
- there is now a new Boolean option for the pipe transport called
- timeout_defer, which, if set TRUE, converts the failures into defers for
- both kinds of timeout. A transport filter timeout is now identified in
- the log output.
-
-
-Version 4.50
+ When the NOTQUIT ACL is running, the variable $smtp_notquit_reason is set
+ to a string that indicates the reason for the termination of the SMTP
+ connection. The possible values are:
+
+ acl-drop Another ACL issued a "drop" command
+ bad-commands Too many unknown or non-mail commands
+ command-timeout Timeout while reading SMTP commands
+ connection-lost The SMTP connection has been lost
+ data-timeout Timeout while reading message data
+ local-scan-error The local_scan() function crashed
+ local-scan-timeout The local_scan() function timed out
+ signal-exit SIGTERM or SIGINT
+ synchronization-error SMTP synchronization error
+ tls-failed TLS failed to start
+
+ In most cases when an SMTP connection is closed without having received
+ QUIT, Exim sends an SMTP response message before actually closing the
+ connection. With the exception of acl-drop, the default message can be
+ overridden by the "message" modifier in the NOTQUIT ACL. In the case of a
+ "drop" verb in another ACL, it is the message from the other ACL that is
+ used.
+
+10. For MySQL and PostgreSQL lookups, it is now possible to specify a list of
+ servers with individual queries. This is done by starting the query with
+ "servers=x:y:z;", where each item in the list may take one of two forms:
+
+ (1) If it is just a host name, the appropriate global option (mysql_servers
+ or pgsql_servers) is searched for a host of the same name, and the
+ remaining parameters (database, user, password) are taken from there.
+
+ (2) If it contains any slashes, it is taken as a complete parameter set.
+
+ The list of servers is used in exactly the same was as the global list.
+ Once a connection to a server has happened and a query has been
+ successfully executed, processing of the lookup ceases.
+
+ This feature is intended for use in master/slave situations where updates
+ are occurring, and one wants to update a master rather than a slave. If the
+ masters are in the list for reading, you might have:
+
+ mysql_servers = slave1/db/name/pw:slave2/db/name/pw:master/db/name/pw
+
+ In an updating lookup, you could then write
+
+ ${lookup mysql{servers=master; UPDATE ...}
+
+ If, on the other hand, the master is not to be used for reading lookups:
+
+ pgsql_servers = slave1/db/name/pw:slave2/db/name/pw
+
+ you can still update the master by
+
+ ${lookup pgsql{servers=master/db/name/pw; UPDATE ...}
+
+11. The message_body_newlines option (default FALSE, for backwards
+ compatibility) can be used to control whether newlines are present in
+ $message_body and $message_body_end. If it is FALSE, they are replaced by
+ spaces.
+
+
+Version 4.67
------------
-The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.50 release.
+ 1. There is a new log selector called smtp_no_mail, which is not included in
+ the default setting. When it is set, a line is written to the main log
+ whenever an accepted SMTP connection terminates without having issued a
+ MAIL command.
+
+ 2. When an item in a dnslists list is followed by = and & and a list of IP
+ addresses, the behaviour was not clear when the lookup returned more than
+ one IP address. This has been solved by the addition of == and =& for "all"
+ rather than the default "any" matching.
+
+ 3. Up till now, the only control over which cipher suites GnuTLS uses has been
+ for the cipher algorithms. New options have been added to allow some of the
+ other parameters to be varied.
+
+ 4. There is a new compile-time option called ENABLE_DISABLE_FSYNC. When it is
+ set, Exim compiles a runtime option called disable_fsync.
+
+ 5. There is a new variable called $smtp_count_at_connection_start.
+
+ 6. There's a new control called no_pipelining.
+
+ 7. There are two new variables called $sending_ip_address and $sending_port.
+ These are set whenever an SMTP connection to another host has been set up.
+
+ 8. The expansion of the helo_data option in the smtp transport now happens
+ after the connection to the server has been made.
+
+ 9. There is a new expansion operator ${rfc2047d: that decodes strings that
+ are encoded as per RFC 2047.
+
+10. There is a new log selector called "pid", which causes the current process
+ id to be added to every log line, in square brackets, immediately after the
+ time and date.
+
+11. Exim has been modified so that it flushes SMTP output before implementing
+ a delay in an ACL. It also flushes the output before performing a callout,
+ as this can take a substantial time. These behaviours can be disabled by
+ obeying control = no_delay_flush or control = no_callout_flush,
+ respectively, at some earlier stage of the connection.
+
+12. There are two new expansion conditions that iterate over a list. They are
+ called forany and forall.
+
+13. There's a new global option called dsn_from that can be used to vary the
+ contents of From: lines in bounces and other automatically generated
+ messages ("delivery status notifications" - hence the name of the option).
+
+14. The smtp transport has a new option called hosts_avoid_pipelining.
+
+15. By default, exigrep does case-insensitive matches. There is now a -I option
+ that makes it case-sensitive.
+
+16. A number of new features ("addresses", "map", "filter", and "reduce") have
+ been added to string expansions to make it easier to process lists of
+ items, typically addresses.
+
+17. There's a new ACL modifier called "continue". It does nothing of itself,
+ and processing of the ACL always continues with the next condition or
+ modifier. It is provided so that the side effects of expanding its argument
+ can be used.
+
+18. It is now possible to use newline and other control characters (those with
+ values less than 32, plus DEL) as separators in lists.
+
+19. The exigrep utility now has a -v option, which inverts the matching
+ condition.
+
+20. The host_find_failed option in the manualroute router can now be set to
+ "ignore".
+
+
+Version 4.66
+------------
+
+No new features were added to 4.66.
+
+
+Version 4.65
+------------
+
+No new features were added to 4.65.
+
+
+Version 4.64
+------------
+
+ 1. ACL variables can now be given arbitrary names, as long as they start with
+ "acl_c" or "acl_m" (for connection variables and message variables), are at
+ least six characters long, with the sixth character being either a digit or
+ an underscore.
+
+ 2. There is a new ACL modifier called log_reject_target. It makes it possible
+ to specify which logs are used for messages about ACL rejections.
+
+ 3. There is a new authenticator called "dovecot". This is an interface to the
+ authentication facility of the Dovecot POP/IMAP server, which can support a
+ number of authentication methods.
+
+ 4. The variable $message_headers_raw provides a concatenation of all the
+ messages's headers without any decoding. This is in contrast to
+ $message_headers, which does RFC2047 decoding on the header contents.
+
+ 5. In a DNS black list, if two domain names, comma-separated, are given, the
+ second is used first to do an initial check, making use of any IP value
+ restrictions that are set. If there is a match, the first domain is used,
+ without any IP value restrictions, to get the TXT record.
+
+ 6. All authenticators now have a server_condition option.
+
+ 7. There is a new command-line option called -Mset. It is useful only in
+ conjunction with -be (that is, when testing string expansions). It must be
+ followed by a message id; Exim loads the given message from its spool
+ before doing the expansions.
+
+ 8. Another similar new command-line option is called -bem. It operates like
+ -be except that it must be followed by the name of a file that contains a
+ message.
+
+ 9. When an address is delayed because of a 4xx response to a RCPT command, it
+ is now the combination of sender and recipient that is delayed in
+ subsequent queue runs until its retry time is reached.
+
+10. Unary negation and the bitwise logical operators and, or, xor, not, and
+ shift, have been added to the eval: and eval10: expansion items.
+
+11. The variables $interface_address and $interface_port have been renamed
+ as $received_ip_address and $received_port, to make it clear that they
+ relate to message reception rather than delivery. (The old names remain
+ available for compatibility.)
+
+12. The "message" modifier can now be used on "accept" and "discard" acl verbs
+ to vary the message that is sent when an SMTP command is accepted.
+
+
+Version 4.63
+------------
+
+1. There is a new Boolean option called filter_prepend_home for the redirect
+ router.
+
+2. There is a new acl, set by acl_not_smtp_start, which is run right at the
+ start of receiving a non-SMTP message, before any of the message has been
+ read.
+
+3. When an SMTP error message is specified in a "message" modifier in an ACL,
+ or in a :fail: or :defer: message in a redirect router, Exim now checks the
+ start of the message for an SMTP error code.
+
+4. There is a new parameter for LDAP lookups called "referrals", which takes
+ one of the settings "follow" (the default) or "nofollow".
+
+5. Version 20070721.2 of exipick now included, offering these new options:
+ --reverse
+ After all other sorting options have bee processed, reverse order
+ before displaying messages (-R is synonym).
+ --random
+ Randomize order of matching messages before displaying.
+ --size
+ Instead of displaying the matching messages, display the sum
+ of their sizes.
+ --sort <variable>[,<variable>...]
+ Before displaying matching messages, sort the messages according to
+ each messages value for each variable.
+ --not
+ Negate the value for every test (returns inverse output from the
+ same criteria without --not).
+
+
+Version 4.62
+------------
+
+1. The ${readsocket expansion item now supports Internet domain sockets as well
+ as Unix domain sockets. If the first argument begins "inet:", it must be of
+ the form "inet:host:port". The port is mandatory; it may be a number or the
+ name of a TCP port in /etc/services. The host may be a name, or it may be an
+ IP address. An ip address may optionally be enclosed in square brackets.
+ This is best for IPv6 addresses. For example:
+
+ ${readsocket{inet:[::1]:1234}{<request data>}...
+
+ Only a single host name may be given, but if looking it up yield more than
+ one IP address, they are each tried in turn until a connection is made. Once
+ a connection has been made, the behaviour is as for ${readsocket with a Unix
+ domain socket.
+
+2. If a redirect router sets up file or pipe deliveries for more than one
+ incoming address, and the relevant transport has batch_max set greater than
+ one, a batch delivery now occurs.
+
+3. The appendfile transport has a new option called maildirfolder_create_regex.
+ Its value is a regular expression. For a maildir delivery, this is matched
+ against the maildir directory; if it matches, Exim ensures that a
+ maildirfolder file is created alongside the new, cur, and tmp directories.
+
+
+Version 4.61
+------------
+
+The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.61 release. Major new features since
+the 4.60 release are:
+
+. An option called disable_ipv6, to disable the use of IPv6 completely.
+
+. An increase in the number of ACL variables to 20 of each type.
+
+. A change to use $auth1, $auth2, and $auth3 in authenticators instead of $1,
+ $2, $3, (though those are still set) because the numeric variables get used
+ for other things in complicated expansions.
+
+. The default for rfc1413_query_timeout has been changed from 30s to 5s.
+
+. It is possible to use setclassresources() on some BSD OS to control the
+ resources used in pipe deliveries.
+
+. A new ACL modifier called add_header, which can be used with any verb.
+
+. More errors are detectable in retry rules.
+
+There are a number of other additions too.
+
+
+Version 4.60
+------------
+
+The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.60 release. Major new features since
+the 4.50 release are:
+
+. Support for SQLite.
+
+. Support for IGNOREQUOTA in LMTP.
+
+. Extensions to the "submission mode" features.
+
+. Support for Client SMTP Authorization (CSA).
+
+. Support for ratelimiting hosts and users.
+
+. New expansion items to help with the BATV "prvs" scheme.
+
+. A "match_ip" condition, that matches an IP address against a list.
+
+There are many more minor changes.
