 New Features in Exim

    it is automatically prepended to the relative path. This action can now be
    prevented by setting filter_prepend_home false.
 
+2. There is a new acl, set by acl_not_smtp_start, which is run right at the
+   start of receiving a non-SMTP message, before any of the message has been
+   read. (This is the analogue of the acl_smtp_predata ACL for SMTP input.) The
+   result of this ACL is ignored; it cannot be used to reject a message. If
+   you really need to, you could set a value in an ACL variable here and reject
+   based on that in the acl_not_smtp ACL. However, this ACL can be used to set
+   controls, and in particular, it can be used to set control=suppress_local_
+   fixups, which cannot be used in the acl_not_smtp ACL because by the time
+   that ACL is run, it is too late. When the acl_not_smtp_start ACL is run, the
+   sender and recipients are known, so the "senders" and "sender_domains"
+   conditions and $sender_address and $recipients variables can be used.
+   Variables such as $authenticated_ sender are also available. It is possible
+   to specify added header lines in this ACL.
+
+3. When an SMTP error message is specified in a "message" modifier in an ACL,
+   or in a :fail: or :defer: message in a redirect router, Exim now checks the
+   start of the message for an SMTP error code. 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
+   forbid_smtp_code option true. In this case, any SMTP code is quietly
+   ignored.
+
+4. There is a new parameter for LDAP lookups called "referrals", which takes
+   one of the settings "follow" (the default) or "nofollow". The latter stops
+   the LDAP library from trying to follow referrals issued by the LDAP server.
+
+5. Version 20070721.2 of exipick now included, offering these new options:
+    --reverse
+        After all other sorting options have bee processed, reverse order
+        before displaying messages (-R is synonym).
+    --random
+        Randomize order of matching messages before displaying.
+    --size
+        Instead of displaying the matching messages, display the sum
+        of their sizes.
+    --sort <variable>[,<variable>...]
+        Before displaying matching messages, sort the messages according to
+        each messages value for each variable.
+    --not
+        Negate the value for every test (returns inverse output from the
+        same criteria without --not).
