Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
Exim version 4.51
-----------------
-TK/01. Added Yahoo DomainKeys support via libdomainkeys. See
- doc/experimental-spec.txt for details. (http://domainkeys.sf.net)
-
-TK/02. Fix ACL "control" statment not being available in MIME ACL.
-
-TK/03. Fix ACL "regex" condition not being available in MIME ACL.
-
-PH/01. Installed a patch from the Sieve maintainer that allows -bf to be used
- to test Sieve filters that use "vacation".
-
-PH/02. Installed a slightly modified version of Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos' patch
- that changes the way the GnuTLS parameters are stored in the cache file.
- The new format can be generated externally. For backward compatibility,
- if the data in the cache doesn't make sense, Exim assumes it has read an
- old-format file, and it generates new data and writes a new file. This
- means that you can't go back to an older release without removing the
- file.
-
-PH/03. A redirect router that has both "unseen" and "one_time" set does not
- work if there are any delivery delays because "one_time" forces the
- parent to be marked "delivered", so its unseen clone is never tried
- again. For this reason, Exim now forbids the simultaneous setting of
- these two options.
-
-PH/04. Change 4.11/85 fixed an obscure bug concerned with addresses that are
- redirected to themselves ("homonym" addresses). Read the long ChangeLog
- entry if you want to know the details. The fix, however, neglected to
- consider the case when local delivery batching is involved. The test for
- "previously delivered" was not happening when checking to see if an
- address could be batched with a previous (undelivered) one; under
- certain circumstances this could lead to multiple deliveries to the same
- address. A one-line patch to add the appropriate test fixes the bug.

+
+PH/05 Renamed the macro SOCKLEN_T as EXIM_SOCKLEN_T because AIX uses SOCKLEN_T
+ in its include files, and this causes problems building Exim.
+
+PH/06 A number of "verify =" ACL conditions have no options (e.g. verify =
+ header_syntax) but Exim was just ignoring anything given after a slash.
+ In particular, this caused confusion with an attempt to use "verify =
+ reverse_host_lookup/defer_ok". An error is now given when options are
+ supplied for verify items that do not have them. (Maybe reverse_host_
+ lookup should have a defer_ok option, but that's a different point.)
+
+PH/07 Increase the size of the buffer for incoming SMTP commands from 512 (as
+ defined by RFC 821) to 2048, because there were problems with some AUTH
+ commands, and RFC 1869 says the size should be increased for extended
+ SMTP commands that take arguments.
+
+PH/08 Added ${dlfunc dynamically loaded function for expansion (code from Tony
+ Finch).
+
+PH/09 Previously, an attempt to use ${perl when it wasn't compiled gave an
+ "unknown" error; now it says that the functionality isn't in the binary.
+
+PH/10 Added a nasty fudge to try to recognize and flatten LDAP passwords in
+ an address' error message when a string expansion fails (syntax or
+ whatever). Otherwise not only does the password appear in the log, it may
+ also be put in a bounce message.
A note about Exim versions 4.44 and 4.50
