The length of off_t variables + is now inspected at build time, and an appropriate printing format (%ld + or %lld) is chosen and #defined by OFF_T_FMT. We also define LONGLONG_T + to be "long long int" or "long int". This is needed for the internal + formatting function string_vformat(). + +PH/16 Applied Matthew Newton's patch to exicyclog: "If log_file_path is set in + the configuration file to be ":syslog", then the script "guesses" where + the logs files are, rather than using the compiled in default. In our + case the guess is not the same as the compiled default, so the script + suddenly stopped working when I started to use syslog. The patch checks + to see if log_file_path is "". If so, it attempts to read it from exim + with no configuration file to get the compiled in version, before it + falls back to the previous guessing code." + +TK/09 Added "prvs" and "prvscheck" expansion items. These help a lot with + implementing BATV in an Exim configuration. See NewStuff for the gory + details. + +PH/17 Applied Michael Haardt's patch for HP-UX, affecting only the os.h and + Makefile that are specific to HP-UX. + +PH/18 If the "use_postmaster" option was set for a recipient callout together + with the "random" option, the postmaster address was used as the MAIL + FROM address for the random test, but not for the subsequent recipient + test. It is now used for both. + +PH/19 Applied Michael Haardt's patch to update Sieve to RFC3028bis. "The + patch removes a few documentation additions to RFC 3028, because the + latest draft now contains them. It adds the new en;ascii-case comparator + and a new error check for 8bit text in MIME parts. Comparator and + require names are now matched exactly. I enabled the subaddress + extension, but it is not well tested yet (read: it works for me)." + +PH/20 Added macros for time_t as for off_t (see PH/15 above) and used them to + rework some of the code of TK/09 above to avoid the hardwired use of + "%lld" and "long long". Replaced the call to snprintf() with a call to + string_vformat(). + +PH/21 Added another message to those in 4.51/PH/42, namely "All relevant MX + records point to non-existent hosts". + +PH/22 Fixed some oversights/typos causing bugs when Exim is compiled with + experimental DomainKeys support: + + (1) The filter variables $n0-$n9 and $sn0-$sn9 were broken. + (2) On an error such as an illegally used "control", the wrong name for + the control was given. + + These problems did NOT occur unless DomainKeys support was compiled. + +PH/23 Added daemon_startup_retries and daemon_startup_sleep. + +PH/24 Added ${if match_ip condition. + +PH/25 Put debug statements on either side of calls to EXIM_DBOPEN() for hints + databases so that it will be absolutely obvious if a crash occurs in the + DB library. This is a regular occurrence (often caused by mis-matched + db.h files). + +PH/26 Insert a lot of missing (void) casts for functions such as chown(), + chmod(), fcntl(), and sscanf(). These were picked up on a user's system + that detects such things. There doesn't seem to be a gcc warning option + for this - only an attribute that has to be put on the function's + prototype. I'm sure I haven't caught all of these, but it's a start. + +PH/27 If a dnslookup or manualroute router is set with verify=only, it need not + specify a transport. However, if an address that was verified by such a + router was the subject of a callout, Exim crashed because it tried to + read the rcpt_include_affixes from the non-existent transport. Now it + just assumes that the setting of that option is false. This bug was + introduced by 4.51/PH/31. + +PH/28 Changed -d+all to exclude +memory, because that information is very + rarely of interest, but it makes the output a lot bigger. People tend to + do -d+all out of habit. + +PH/29 Removed support for the Linux-libc5 build, as it is obsolete and the + code in os-type was giving problems when libc.so lives in lib64, like on + x86_64 Fedora Core. + + Exim version 4.51 -----------------
