Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
PH/15 The code I had for printing potentially long long variables in PH/11
above was not the best (it lost precision). The length of off_t variables
is now inspected at build time, and an appropriate printing format (%ld
- or %lld) is chosen and #defined by OFF_T_FMT. We also define ASSUME_
- LONG_LONG_SUPPORT if the length is greater than 4. This is needed for the
- internal formatting function string_vformat().
+ or %lld) is chosen and #defined by OFF_T_FMT. We also define LONGLONG_T
+ to be "long long int" or "long int". This is needed for the internal
+ formatting function string_vformat().
PH/16 Applied Matthew Newton's patch to exicyclog: "If log_file_path is set in
the configuration file to be ":syslog", then the script "guesses" where
require names are now matched exactly. I enabled the subaddress
extension, but it is not well tested yet (read: it works for me)."
+PH/20 Added macros for time_t as for off_t (see PH/15 above) and used them to
+ rework some of the code of TK/09 above to avoid the hardwired use of
+ "%lld" and "long long". Replaced the call to snprintf() with a call to
+ string_vformat().
+
+PH/21 Added another message to those in 4.51/PH/42, namely "All relevant MX
+ records point to non-existent hosts".
+
+PH/22 Fixed some oversights/typos causing bugs when Exim is compiled with
+ experimental DomainKeys support:
+
+ (1) The filter variables $n0-$n9 and $sn0-$sn9 were broken.
+ (2) On an error such as an illegally used "control", the wrong name for
+ the control was given.
+
+ These problems did NOT occur unless DomainKeys support was compiled.
+
+PH/23 Added daemon_startup_retries and daemon_startup_sleep.
+
+PH/24 Added ${if match_ip condition.
+
+PH/25 Put debug statements on either side of calls to EXIM_DBOPEN() for hints
+ databases so that it will be absolutely obvious if a crash occurs in the
+ DB library. This is a regular occurrence (often caused by mis-matched
+ db.h files).
+
+PH/26 Insert a lot of missing (void) casts for functions such as chown(),
+ chmod(), fcntl(), and sscanf(). These were picked up on a user's system
+ that detects such things. There doesn't seem to be a gcc warning option
+ for this - only an attribute that has to be put on the function's
+ prototype. I'm sure I haven't caught all of these, but it's a start.
+
+PH/27 If a dnslookup or manualroute router is set with verify=only, it need not
+ specify a transport. However, if an address that was verified by such a
+ router was the subject of a callout, Exim crashed because it tried to
+ read the rcpt_include_affixes from the non-existent transport. Now it
+ just assumes that the setting of that option is false. This bug was
+ introduced by 4.51/PH/31.
+
+PH/28 Changed -d+all to exclude +memory, because that information is very
+ rarely of interest, but it makes the output a lot bigger. People tend to
+ do -d+all out of habit.
+
