+      tweaks were necessary in order to get it to work (see also 21 below):
       (a) The code assumed that strncpy() returns a negative number on buffer
           overflow, which isn't the case. Replaced with Exim's string_format()
           function.
@@ -128,6 +128,36 @@ PH/18 Two problems with "group" syntax in header lines when verifying: (1) The
       the flag correctly in the right place). These bugs could have caused
       trouble for malformed header lines. I hope it is now all correct.
 
+PH/19 The functions {pwcheck,saslauthd}_verify_password() are always called
+      with the "reply" argument non-NULL. The code, however (which originally
+      came from elsewhere) had *some* tests for NULL when it wrote to *reply,
+      but it didn't always do it. This confused somebody who was copying the
+      code for some other use. I have removed all the tests.
+
+PH/20 It was discovered that the GnuTLS code had support for RSA_EXPORT, a
+      feature that was used to support insecure browsers during the U.S. crypto
+      embargo. It requires special client support, and Exim is probably the
+      only MTA that supported it -- and would never use it because real RSA is
+      always available. This code has been removed, because it had the bad
+      effect of slowing Exim down by computing (never used) parameters for the
+      RSA_EXPORT functionality.
+
+PH/21 On the advice of Timo Sirainen, added a check to the dovecot
+      authenticator to fail if there's a tab character in the incoming data
+      (there should never be unless someone is messing about, as it's supposed
+      to be base64-encoded). Also added, on Timo's advice, the "secured" option
+      if the connection is using TLS or if the remote IP is the same as the
+      local IP, and the "valid-client-cert option" if a client certificate has
+      been verified.
+
+PH/22 As suggested by Dennis Davis, added a server_condition option to *all*
+      authenticators. This can be used for authorization after authentication
+      succeeds. (In the case of plaintext, it servers for both authentication
+      and authorization.)
+
+PH/23 Testing for tls_required and lost_connection in a retry rule didn't work
+      if any retry times were supplied.
