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. +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 rfc4131_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
