If IP literals are enabled, the ipliteral router declines to handle IPv6 literal addresses. +PH/02 There are now 20 of each type of ACL variable by default (instead of 10). + It is also possible to change the numbers by setting ACL_CVARS and/or + ACL_MVARS in Local/Makefile. Backward compatibility is maintained if you + upgrade to this release with existing messages containing ACL variable + settings on the queue. However, going in the other direction + (downgrading) will not be compatible; the values of ACL variables will be + lost. + +PH/03 If quota_warn_message contains a From: header, Exim now refrains from + adding the default one. Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the + errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used. + +PH/04 The variables $auth1, $auth2, $auth3 are now available in authenticators, + containing the same values as $1, $2, $3. The new variables are provided + because the numerical variables can be reset during string expansions + (for example, during a "match" operation) and so may lose the + authentication data. The preferred variables are now the new ones, with + the use of the numerical ones being deprecated, though the support will + not be removed, at least, not for a long time. + +PH/05 The "control=freeze" ACL modifier can now be followed by /no_tell. If + the global option freeze_tell is set, it is ignored for the current + message (that is, nobody is told about the freezing), provided all the + "control=freeze" modifiers that are obeyed in the current message have + the /no_tell option. + +PH/06 In both GnuTLS and OpenSSL, an expansion of tls_privatekey that results + in an empty string is now treated as unset. + +PH/07 There is a new log selector called sender_verify_fail, which is set by + default. If it is unset, the separate log line that gives details of a + sender verification failure is not written. Log lines for the rejection + of SMTP commands (e.g. RCPT) contain just "sender verify failed", so some + detail is lost. + +PH/08 The default for dns_check_names_pattern now allows slashes within names, + as there are now some PTR records that contain slashes. This check is + only to protect against broken name servers that fall over on strange + characters, so the fact that it applies to all lookups doesn't matter. + + Version 4.60 ------------
