+Version 4.61
+------------
+
+PH/01 There is a new global option called disable_ipv6, which does exactly what
+      its name implies. If set true, even if the Exim binary has IPv6 support,
+      no IPv6 activities take place. AAAA records are never looked up as a for
+      host names given in manual routing data or elsewhere. AAAA records that
+      are received from the DNS as additional data for MX records are ignored.
+      Any IPv6 addresses that are listed in local_interfaces, manualroute route
+      data, etc. are also ignored. If IP literals are enabled, the ipliteral
+      router declines to handle IPv6 literal addresses.
