This consists of three digits followed +by a space, optionally followed by an extended code of the form n.n.n, also +followed by a space. If this is the case and the very first digit is the same +as the default error code, the code from the message is used instead. If the +very first digit is incorrect, a panic error is logged, and the default code is +used. This is an incompatible change, but it is not expected to affect many (if +any) configurations. It is possible to suppress the use of the supplied code in +a redirect router by setting the smtp_error_code option false. In this case, +any SMTP code is quietly ignored. + + +Exim version 4.61 +----------------- + +1. The default number of ACL variables of each type has been increased to 20, +and it's possible to compile Exim with more. You can safely upgrade to this +release if you already have messages on the queue with saved ACL variable +values. However, if you downgrade from this release with messages on the queue, +any saved ACL values they may have will be lost. + +2.

This has been changed so that "name=" takes the rest of the string as +its data. It must therefore be the last option. + + +Version 4.53 +------------ + +If you are using the experimental Domain Keys support, you must upgrade to +at least libdomainkeys 0.67 in order to run this release of Exim. + + Version 4.51 ------------ @@ -50,6 +94,10 @@ uses prefixes or suffixes on addresses that could be used for callouts, and you want the affixes to be retained, you must make sure that rcpt_include_affixes is set on the transport. +3.
