 Exim version 4.98
 -----------------
 
+JH/01 Use fewer forks & execs for sending many messages to a single host.
+      By passing back more info from the transport to the delivery process,
+      we can loop there.  A two-phase queue run will benefit, particularly for
+      mailinglist and smarthost cases.
+
+JH/02 Add transaction support for hintsdbs. The providers supported are tdb and
+      sqlite. Transactions are used for the wait-transport and retry DBs.
+      They imply locking internal to the DB.  We no longer need a separate
+      lockfile, can keep the DB handle open for extended periods, yet
+      potentially benefit from concurrency on non-conflicting record uses.
+
+JH/03 With dkim_verify_minimal, avoid calling the DKIM ACL after the first
+      good verify.
+
+JH/04 Remove the docs and support scripts dealing with conversion of Exim
+      version 3 installations.
+
+JH/05 Fix hintsdb support for dbmjz when compiled using sqlite3. Previously
+      the backend support assumed keys would be simple C strings, but dbmjz
+      uses keys with embedded NUL bytes.  The builtin hintsdb use is unaffected,
+      but installations using dbmjz will need to rebuild those DBs.
+
+JH/06 Bug 1141: When operating a continued-connection transport, verify that
+      the interface option, if specified, evaluates to match the connection.
+      Previously, a queued message for the same host was sent without checking.
+
+JH/07 Bug 3106: Fix coding in SPA authenticator. A macro argument was not
+      properly parenthesized, resulting in a logic error.  While the simple
+      fix was provided by Andrew Aitchison, the over-large code block resulting
+      from this macro made me want to replace it with a real function so more
+      extensive rework becamse needed.
+
+JH/08 The output of "exim -bV" now includes lookup types built as dynamic-load
+      modules.
+
+JH/09 Not a change, but worthy of note: There is no test coverage of the
+      heimdall-gssapi authenticator driver.  It does build, though with (on at
+      least one platform) library version conflicts with the gsasl auth
+      driver).  Confidence in its operation is lacking.
+
+JH/10 Bug 3108: On platforms not providing strchrnul() [OpenBSD] supply a proper
+      prototype (as well as implementaton).  Previously, a return type "int"
+      was assumed, resulting in type-conversion bugs when int and pointer had
+      different size.  This resulted in crashes while processing DKIM signatures
+      of received messages.  Identification and fix from Qualys Security.
+
+JH/11 Lookups built as dynamic-load modules which support a single lookup
+      type are now only loaded if required by the config. Previously all lookup
+      modules present in the modules directory were loaded; this now applies
+      only to those supporting multiple types.
+
+JH/12 Bug 3112: Fix logging of config-file position for "obsolete lookup
+      syntax". Previously, the end of the top-level file was reported.
+
+JH/13 Bug 3120: Fix parsing of DKIM pubkey DNS record. Previously a crafted
+      record could crash the meesage recieve process. Investigation by
+      Maxim Galaganov.
+
+JH/14 Bug 3116: Fix crash in dkim signing.  On kernels supporting immutable
+      memory segments, a write was done into one when a constant string was
+      configured for a transport's dkim private key.
+
+JH/15 Disallow tainted metadata in lists.
+      - Change-of-separator prefixes are handled specially when they are
+      explicit text; only the remainder of the list is expanded. A change-of-
+      separator resulting from expansion will not take effect if tainted.
+      - Elements starting with a plus-sign (named-list inclusion,
+      case-interpretation etc) and (hostlist) @[] (et al) are not handled
+      specially and are still operative at this time - but warnings are logged;
+      if any of these are needed in a list with a tainted element (which taints
+      the entire list at string-expansion time) then a named-list can be used
+      for that element.
+      - Exclamation-marks ("!" signifying negation) are not checked for taint
+      at this time.

 JH/01 Support list of dkim results in the dkim_status ACL condition, making
       it more usable in the data ACL.
