Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
run out. I reviewed all the other calls to fork(); they all seem to check
for failure.
+PH/20 When checking for unexpected SMTP input at connect time (before writing
+ the banner), Exim was not dealing correctly with a non-positive return
+ from the read() function. If the client had disconnected by this time,
+ the result was a log entry for a synchronization error with an empty
+ string after "input=" when read() returned zero. If read() returned -1
+ (an event I could not check), uninitialized data bytes were printed.
+ There were reports of junk text (parts of files, etc) appearing after
+ "input=".

A note about Exim versions 4.44 and 4.50
