+Version 4.87
+------------
+
+
+Version 4.86
+------------
+
+ 1. Support for using the system standard CA bundle.
+
+ 2. New expansion items $config_file, $config_dir, containing the file
+ and directory name of the main configuration file. Also $exim_version.
+
+ 3. New "malware=" support for Avast.
+
+ 4. New "spam=" variant option for Rspamd.
+
+ 5. Assorted options on malware= and spam= scanners.
+
+ 6. A commandline option to write a comment into the logfile.
+
+ 7. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_SOCKS feature enabled, the smtp transport can
+ be configured to make connections via socks5 proxies.
+
+ 8. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL, support is included for
+ the transmission of UTF-8 envelope addresses.
+
+ 9. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL, an expansion item for a commonly
+ used encoding of Maildir folder names.
+
+10. A logging option for slow DNS lookups.
+
+11. New ${env {<variable>}} expansion.
+
+12. A non-SMTP authenticator using information from TLS client certificates.
+
+13. Main option "tls_eccurve" for selecting an Elliptic Curve for TLS.
+ Patch originally by Wolfgang Breyha.
+
+14. Main option "dns_trust_aa" for trusting your local nameserver at the
+ same level as DNSSEC.
+
+
+Version 4.85
+------------
+
+ 1. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_DANE feature enabled, Exim will follow the
+ DANE smtp draft to assess a secure chain of trust of the certificate
+ used to establish the TLS connection based on a TLSA record in the
+ domain of the sender.
+
+ 2. The EXPERIMENTAL_TPDA feature has been renamed to EXPERIMENTAL_EVENT
+ and several new events have been created. The reason is because it has
+ been expanded beyond just firing events during the transport phase. Any
+ existing TPDA transport options will have to be rewritten to use a new
+ $event_name expansion variable in a condition. Refer to the
+ experimental-spec.txt for details and examples.
+
+ 3. The EXPERIMENTAL_CERTNAMES features is an enhancement to verify that
+ server certs used for TLS match the result of the MX lookup. It does
+ not use the same mechanism as DANE.
+
+
+Version 4.84
+------------
+
+
+Version 4.83
+------------
+
+ 1. If built with the EXPERIMENTAL_PROXY feature enabled, Exim can be
+ configured to expect an initial header from a proxy that will make the
+ actual external source IP:host be used in exim instead of the IP of the
+ proxy that is connecting to it.
+
+ 2. New verify option header_names_ascii, which will check to make sure
+ there are no non-ASCII characters in header names. Exim itself handles
+ those non-ASCII characters, but downstream apps may not, so Exim can
+ detect and reject if those characters are present.
+
+ 3. New expansion operator ${utf8clean:string} to replace malformed UTF8
+ codepoints with valid ones.
+
+ 4. New malware type "sock". Talks over a Unix or TCP socket, sending one
+ command line and matching a regex against the return data for trigger
+ and a second regex to extract malware_name. The mail spoolfile name can
+ be included in the command line.
+
+ 5. The smtp transport now supports options "tls_verify_hosts" and
+ "tls_try_verify_hosts". If either is set the certificate verification
+ is split from the encryption operation. The default remains that a failed
+ verification cancels the encryption.
+
+ 6. New SERVERS override of default ldap server list. In the ACLs, an ldap
+ lookup can now set a list of servers to use that is different from the
+ default list.
+
+ 7. New command-line option -C for exiqgrep to specify alternate exim.conf
+ file when searching the queue.
+
+ 8. OCSP now supports GnuTLS also, if you have version 3.1.3 or later of that.
+
+ 9. Support for DNSSEC on outbound connections.
+
+10. New variables "tls_(in,out)_(our,peer)cert" and expansion item
+ "certextract" to extract fields from them. Hash operators md5 and sha1
+ work over them for generating fingerprints, and a new sha256 operator
+ for them added.
+
+11. PRDR is now supported dy default.
+
+12. OCSP stapling is now supported by default.
+
+13. If built with the EXPERIMENTAL_DSN feature enabled, Exim will output
+ Delivery Status Notification messages in MIME format, and negociate
+ DSN features per RFC 3461.
+
+
+Version 4.82
+------------
+
+ 1. New command-line option -bI:sieve will list all supported sieve extensions
+ of this Exim build on standard output, one per line.
+ ManageSieve (RFC 5804) providers managing scripts for use by Exim should
+ query this to establish the correct list to include in the protocol's
+ SIEVE capability line.
+
+ 2. If the -n option is combined with the -bP option, then the name of an
+ emitted option is not output, only the value (if visible to you).
+ For instance, "exim -n -bP pid_file_path" should just emit a pathname
+ followed by a newline, and no other text.
+
+ 3. When built with SUPPORT_TLS and USE_GNUTLS, the SMTP transport driver now
+ has a "tls_dh_min_bits" option, to set the minimum acceptable number of
+ bits in the Diffie-Hellman prime offered by a server (in DH ciphersuites)
+ acceptable for security. (Option accepted but ignored if using OpenSSL).
+ Defaults to 1024, the old value. May be lowered only to 512, or raised as
+ far as you like. Raising this may hinder TLS interoperability with other
+ sites and is not currently recommended. Lowering this will permit you to
+ establish a TLS session which is not as secure as you might like.
+
+ Unless you really know what you are doing, leave it alone.
+
+ 4. If not built with DISABLE_DNSSEC, Exim now has the main option
+ dns_dnssec_ok; if set to 1 then Exim will initialise the resolver library
+ to send the DO flag to your recursive resolver. If you have a recursive
+ resolver, which can set the Authenticated Data (AD) flag in results, Exim
+ can now detect this. Exim does not perform validation itself, instead
+ relying upon a trusted path to the resolver.
+
+ Current status: work-in-progress; $sender_host_dnssec variable added.
+
+ 5. DSCP support for outbound connections: on a transport using the smtp driver,
+ set "dscp = ef", for instance, to cause the connections to have the relevant
+ DSCP (IPv4 TOS or IPv6 TCLASS) value in the header.
+
+ Similarly for inbound connections, there is a new control modifier, dscp,
+ so "warn control = dscp/ef" in the connect ACL, or after authentication.
+
+ Supported values depend upon system libraries. "exim -bI:dscp" to list the
+ ones Exim knows of. You can also set a raw number 0..0x3F.
+
+ 6. The -G command-line flag is no longer ignored; it is now equivalent to an
+ ACL setting "control = suppress_local_fixups". The -L command-line flag
+ is now accepted and forces use of syslog, with the provided tag as the
+ process name. A few other flags used by Sendmail are now accepted and
+ ignored.
+
+ 7. New cutthrough routing feature. Requested by a "control = cutthrough_delivery"
+ ACL modifier; works for single-recipient mails which are recieved on and
+ deliverable via SMTP. Using the connection made for a recipient verify,
+ if requested before the verify, or a new one made for the purpose while
+ the inbound connection is still active. The bulk of the mail item is copied
+ direct from the inbound socket to the outbound (as well as the spool file).
+ When the source notifies the end of data, the data acceptance by the destination
+ is negociated before the acceptance is sent to the source. If the destination
+ does not accept the mail item, for example due to content-scanning, the item
+ is not accepted from the source and therefore there is no need to generate
+ a bounce mail. This is of benefit when providing a secondary-MX service.
+ The downside is that delays are under the control of the ultimate destination
+ system not your own.
+
+ The Recieved-by: header on items delivered by cutthrough is generated
+ early in reception rather than at the end; this will affect any timestamp
+ included. The log line showing delivery is recorded before that showing
+ reception; it uses a new ">>" tag instead of "=>".
+
+ To support the feature, verify-callout connections can now use ESMTP and TLS.
+ The usual smtp transport options are honoured, plus a (new, default everything)
+ hosts_verify_avoid_tls.
+
+ New variable families named tls_in_cipher, tls_out_cipher etc. are introduced
+ for specific access to the information for each connection. The old names
+ are present for now but deprecated.
+
+ Not yet supported: IGNOREQUOTA, SIZE, PIPELINING.
+
+ 8. New expansion operators ${listnamed:name} to get the content of a named list
+ and ${listcount:string} to count the items in a list.
+
+ 9. New global option "gnutls_allow_auto_pkcs11", defaults false. The GnuTLS
+ rewrite in 4.80 combines with GnuTLS 2.12.0 or later, to autoload PKCS11
+ modules. For some situations this is desirable, but we expect admin in
+ those situations to know they want the feature. More commonly, it means
+ that GUI user modules get loaded and are broken by the setuid Exim being
+ unable to access files specified in environment variables and passed
+ through, thus breakage. So we explicitly inhibit the PKCS11 initialisation
+ unless this new option is set.
+
+ Some older OS's with earlier versions of GnuTLS might not have pkcs11 ability,
+ so have also added a build option which can be used to build Exim with GnuTLS
+ but without trying to use any kind of PKCS11 support. Uncomment this in the
+ Local/Makefile:
+
+ AVOID_GNUTLS_PKCS11=yes
+
+10. The "acl = name" condition on an ACL now supports optional arguments.
+ New expansion item "${acl {name}{arg}...}" and expansion condition
+ "acl {{name}{arg}...}" are added. In all cases up to nine arguments
+ can be used, appearing in $acl_arg1 to $acl_arg9 for the called ACL.
+ Variable $acl_narg contains the number of arguments. If the ACL sets
+ a "message =" value this becomes the result of the expansion item,
+ or the value of $value for the expansion condition. If the ACL returns
+ accept the expansion condition is true; if reject, false. A defer
+ return results in a forced fail.
+
+11. Routers and transports can now have multiple headers_add and headers_remove
+ option lines. The concatenated list is used.
+
+12. New ACL modifier "remove_header" can remove headers before message gets
+ handled by routers/transports.
+
+13. New dnsdb lookup pseudo-type "a+". A sequence of "a6" (if configured),
+ "aaaa" and "a" lookups is done and the full set of results returned.
+
+14. New expansion variable $headers_added with content from ACL add_header
+ modifier (but not yet added to messsage).
+
+15. New 8bitmime status logging option for received messages. Log field "M8S".
+
+16. New authenticated_sender logging option, adding to log field "A".
+
+17. New expansion variables $router_name and $transport_name. Useful
+ particularly for debug_print as -bt commandline option does not
+ require privilege whereas -d does.
+
+18. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_PRDR, per-recipient data responses per a
+ proposed extension to SMTP from Eric Hall.
+
+19. The pipe transport has gained the force_command option, to allow
+ decorating commands from user .forward pipe aliases with prefix
+ wrappers, for instance.
+
+20. Callout connections can now AUTH; the same controls as normal delivery
+ connections apply.
+
+21. Support for DMARC, using opendmarc libs, can be enabled. It adds new
+ options: dmarc_forensic_sender, dmarc_history_file, and dmarc_tld_file.
+ It adds new expansion variables $dmarc_ar_header, $dmarc_status,
+ $dmarc_status_text, and $dmarc_used_domain. It adds a new acl modifier
+ dmarc_status. It adds new control flags dmarc_disable_verify and
+ dmarc_enable_forensic.
+
+22. Add expansion variable $authenticated_fail_id, which is the username
+ provided to the authentication method which failed. It is available
+ for use in subsequent ACL processing (typically quit or notquit ACLs).
+
+23. New ACL modifer "udpsend" can construct a UDP packet to send to a given
+ UDP host and port.
+
+24. New ${hexquote:..string..} expansion operator converts non-printable
+ characters in the string to \xNN form.
+
+25. Experimental TPDA (Transport Post Delivery Action) function added.
+ Patch provided by Axel Rau.
+
+26. Experimental Redis lookup added. Patch provided by Warren Baker.
+
+
+Version 4.80
+------------
+
+ 1. New authenticator driver, "gsasl". Server-only (at present).
+ This is a SASL interface, licensed under GPL, which can be found at
+ http://www.gnu.org/software/gsasl/.
+ This system does not provide sources of data for authentication, so
+ careful use needs to be made of the conditions in Exim.
+
+ 2. New authenticator driver, "heimdal_gssapi". Server-only.
+ A replacement for using cyrus_sasl with Heimdal, now that $KRB5_KTNAME
+ is no longer honoured for setuid programs by Heimdal. Use the
+ "server_keytab" option to point to the keytab.
+
+ 3. The "pkg-config" system can now be used when building Exim to reference
+ cflags and library information for lookups and authenticators, rather
+ than having to update "CFLAGS", "AUTH_LIBS", "LOOKUP_INCLUDE" and
+ "LOOKUP_LIBS" directly. Similarly for handling the TLS library support
+ without adjusting "TLS_INCLUDE" and "TLS_LIBS".
+
+ In addition, setting PCRE_CONFIG=yes will query the pcre-config tool to
+ find the headers and libraries for PCRE.
+
+ 4. New expansion variable $tls_bits.
+
+ 5. New lookup type, "dbmjz". Key is an Exim list, the elements of which will
+ be joined together with ASCII NUL characters to construct the key to pass
+ into the DBM library. Can be used with gsasl to access sasldb2 files as
+ used by Cyrus SASL.
+
+ 6. OpenSSL now supports TLS1.1 and TLS1.2 with OpenSSL 1.0.1.
+
+ Avoid release 1.0.1a if you can. Note that the default value of
+ "openssl_options" is no longer "+dont_insert_empty_fragments", as that
+ increased susceptibility to attack. This may still have interoperability
+ implications for very old clients (see version 4.31 change 37) but
+ administrators can choose to make the trade-off themselves and restore
+ compatibility at the cost of session security.
+
+ 7. Use of the new expansion variable $tls_sni in the main configuration option
+ tls_certificate will cause Exim to re-expand the option, if the client
+ sends the TLS Server Name Indication extension, to permit choosing a
+ different certificate; tls_privatekey will also be re-expanded. You must
+ still set these options to expand to valid files when $tls_sni is not set.
+
+ The SMTP Transport has gained the option tls_sni, which will set a hostname
+ for outbound TLS sessions, and set $tls_sni too.
+
+ A new log_selector, +tls_sni, has been added, to log received SNI values
+ for Exim as a server.
+
+ 8. The existing "accept_8bitmime" option now defaults to true. This means
+ that Exim is deliberately not strictly RFC compliant. We're following
+ Dan Bernstein's advice in http://cr.yp.to/smtp/8bitmime.html by default.
+ Those who disagree, or know that they are talking to mail servers that,
+ even today, are not 8-bit clean, need to turn off this option.
+
+ 9. Exim can now be started with -bw (with an optional timeout, given as
+ -bw<timespec>). With this, stdin at startup is a socket that is
+ already listening for connections. This has a more modern name of
+ "socket activation", but forcing the activated socket to fd 0. We're
+ interested in adding more support for modern variants.
+
+10. ${eval } now uses 64-bit values on supporting platforms. A new "G" suffix
+ for numbers indicates multiplication by 1024^3.
+
+11. The GnuTLS support has been revamped; the three options gnutls_require_kx,
+ gnutls_require_mac & gnutls_require_protocols are no longer supported.
+ tls_require_ciphers is now parsed by gnutls_priority_init(3) as a priority
+ string, documentation for which is at:
+ http://www.gnutls.org/manual/html_node/Priority-Strings.html
+
+ SNI support has been added to Exim's GnuTLS integration too.
+
+ For sufficiently recent GnuTLS libraries, ${randint:..} will now use
+ gnutls_rnd(), asking for GNUTLS_RND_NONCE level randomness.
+
+12. With OpenSSL, if built with EXPERIMENTAL_OCSP, a new option tls_ocsp_file
+ is now available. If the contents of the file are valid, then Exim will
+ send that back in response to a TLS status request; this is OCSP Stapling.
+ Exim will not maintain the contents of the file in any way: administrators
+ are responsible for ensuring that it is up-to-date.
+
+ See "experimental-spec.txt" for more details.
+
+13. ${lookup dnsdb{ }} supports now SPF record types. They are handled
+ identically to TXT record lookups.
+
+14. New expansion variable $tod_epoch_l for higher-precision time.
+
+15. New global option tls_dh_max_bits, defaulting to current value of NSS
+ hard-coded limit of DH ephemeral bits, to fix interop problems caused by
+ GnuTLS 2.12 library recommending a bit count higher than NSS supports.
+
+16. tls_dhparam now used by both OpenSSL and GnuTLS, can be path or identifier.
+ Option can now be a path or an identifier for a standard prime.
+ If unset, we use the DH prime from section 2.2 of RFC 5114, "ike23".
+ Set to "historic" to get the old GnuTLS behaviour of auto-generated DH
+ primes.
+
+17. SSLv2 now disabled by default in OpenSSL. (Never supported by GnuTLS).
+ Use "openssl_options -no_sslv2" to re-enable support, if your OpenSSL
+ install was not built with OPENSSL_NO_SSL2 ("no-ssl2").
+
+
+Version 4.77
+------------
+
+ 1. New options for the ratelimit ACL condition: /count= and /unique=.
+ The /noupdate option has been replaced by a /readonly option.
+
+ 2. The SMTP transport's protocol option may now be set to "smtps", to
+ use SSL-on-connect outbound.
+
+ 3. New variable $av_failed, set true if the AV scanner deferred; ie, when
+ there is a problem talking to the AV scanner, or the AV scanner running.
+
+ 4. New expansion conditions, "inlist" and "inlisti", which take simple lists
+ and check if the search item is a member of the list. This does not
+ support named lists, but does subject the list part to string expansion.
+
+ 5. Unless the new EXPAND_LISTMATCH_RHS build option is set when Exim was
+ built, Exim no longer performs string expansion on the second string of
+ the match_* expansion conditions: "match_address", "match_domain",
+ "match_ip" & "match_local_part". Named lists can still be used.
+
+
+Version 4.76
+------------
+
+ 1. The global option "dns_use_edns0" may be set to coerce EDNS0 usage on
+ or off in the resolver library.
+
+
+Version 4.75
+------------
+
+ 1. In addition to the existing LDAP and LDAP/SSL ("ldaps") support, there
+ is now LDAP/TLS support, given sufficiently modern OpenLDAP client
+ libraries. The following global options have been added in support of
+ this: ldap_ca_cert_dir, ldap_ca_cert_file, ldap_cert_file, ldap_cert_key,
+ ldap_cipher_suite, ldap_require_cert, ldap_start_tls.
+
+ 2. The pipe transport now takes a boolean option, "freeze_signal", default
+ false. When true, if the external delivery command exits on a signal then
+ Exim will freeze the message in the queue, instead of generating a bounce.
+
+ 3. Log filenames may now use %M as an escape, instead of %D (still available).
+ The %M pattern expands to yyyymm, providing month-level resolution.
+
+ 4. The $message_linecount variable is now updated for the maildir_tag option,
+ in the same way as $message_size, to reflect the real number of lines,
+ including any header additions or removals from transport.
+
+ 5. When contacting a pool of SpamAssassin servers configured in spamd_address,
+ Exim now selects entries randomly, to better scale in a cluster setup.
+
+
+Version 4.74
+------------
+
+ 1. SECURITY FIX: privilege escalation flaw fixed. On Linux (and only Linux)
+ the flaw permitted the Exim run-time user to cause root to append to
+ arbitrary files of the attacker's choosing, with the content based
+ on content supplied by the attacker.
+
+ 2. Exim now supports loading some lookup types at run-time, using your
+ platform's dlopen() functionality. This has limited platform support
+ and the intention is not to support every variant, it's limited to
+ dlopen(). This permits the main Exim binary to not be linked against
+ all the libraries needed for all the lookup types.
+
+
+Version 4.73
+------------
+
+ NOTE: this version is not guaranteed backwards-compatible, please read the
+ items below carefully
+
+ 1. A new main configuration option, "openssl_options", is available if Exim
+ is built with SSL support provided by OpenSSL. The option allows
+ administrators to specify OpenSSL options to be used on connections;
+ typically this is to set bug compatibility features which the OpenSSL
+ developers have not enabled by default. There may be security
+ consequences for certain options, so these should not be changed
+ frivolously.
+
+ 2. A new pipe transport option, "permit_coredumps", may help with problem
+ diagnosis in some scenarios. Note that Exim is typically installed as
+ a setuid binary, which on most OSes will inhibit coredumps by default,
+ so that safety mechanism would have to be overridden for this option to
+ be able to take effect.
+
+ 3. ClamAV 0.95 is now required for ClamAV support in Exim, unless
+ Local/Makefile sets: WITH_OLD_CLAMAV_STREAM=yes
+ Note that this switches Exim to use a new API ("INSTREAM") and a future
+ release of ClamAV will remove support for the old API ("STREAM").
+
+ The av_scanner option, when set to "clamd", now takes an optional third
+ part, "local", which causes Exim to pass a filename to ClamAV instead of
+ the file content. This is the same behaviour as when clamd is pointed at
+ a Unix-domain socket. For example:
+
+ av_scanner = clamd:192.0.2.3 1234:local
+
+ ClamAV's ExtendedDetectionInfo response format is now handled.
+
+ 4. There is now a -bmalware option, restricted to admin users. This option
+ takes one parameter, a filename, and scans that file with Exim's
+ malware-scanning framework. This is intended purely as a debugging aid
+ to ensure that Exim's scanning is working, not to replace other tools.
+ Note that the ACL framework is not invoked, so if av_scanner references
+ ACL variables without a fallback then this will fail.
+
+ 5. There is a new expansion operator, "reverse_ip", which will reverse IP
+ addresses; IPv4 into dotted quad, IPv6 into dotted nibble. Examples:
+
+ ${reverse_ip:192.0.2.4}
+ -> 4.2.0.192
+ ${reverse_ip:2001:0db8:c42:9:1:abcd:192.0.2.3}
+ -> 3.0.2.0.0.0.0.c.d.c.b.a.1.0.0.0.9.0.0.0.2.4.c.0.8.b.d.0.1.0.0.2
+
+ 6. There is a new ACL control called "debug", to enable debug logging.
+ This allows selective logging of certain incoming transactions within
+ production environments, with some care. It takes two options, "tag"
+ and "opts"; "tag" is included in the filename of the log and "opts"
+ is used as per the -d<options> command-line option. Examples, which
+ don't all make sense in all contexts:
+
+ control = debug
+ control = debug/tag=.$sender_host_address
+ control = debug/opts=+expand+acl
+ control = debug/tag=.$message_exim_id/opts=+expand
+
+ 7. It has always been implicit in the design and the documentation that
+ "the Exim user" is not root. src/EDITME said that using root was
+ "very strongly discouraged". This is not enough to keep people from
+ shooting themselves in the foot in days when many don't configure Exim
+ themselves but via package build managers. The security consequences of
+ running various bits of network code are severe if there should be bugs in
+ them. As such, the Exim user may no longer be root. If configured
+ statically, Exim will refuse to build. If configured as ref:user then Exim
+ will exit shortly after start-up. If you must shoot yourself in the foot,
+ then henceforth you will have to maintain your own local patches to strip
+ the safeties off.
+
+ 8. There is a new expansion condition, bool_lax{}. Where bool{} uses the ACL
+ condition logic to determine truth/failure and will fail to expand many
+ strings, bool_lax{} uses the router condition logic, where most strings
+ do evaluate true.
+ Note: bool{00} is false, bool_lax{00} is true.
+
+ 9. Routers now support multiple "condition" tests.
+
+10. There is now a runtime configuration option "tcp_wrappers_daemon_name".
+ Setting this allows an admin to define which entry in the tcpwrappers
+ config file will be used to control access to the daemon. This option
+ is only available when Exim is built with USE_TCP_WRAPPERS. The
+ default value is set at build time using the TCP_WRAPPERS_DAEMON_NAME
+ build option.
+
+11. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] The default value for system_filter_user is now
+ the Exim run-time user, instead of root.
+
+12. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY is no longer optional and
+ is forced on. This is mitigated by the new build option
+ TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST which defines a list of configuration files which
+ are trusted; one per line. If a config file is owned by root and matches
+ a pathname in the list, then it may be invoked by the Exim build-time
+ user without Exim relinquishing root privileges.
+
+13. [POSSIBLE CONFIG BREAKAGE] The Exim user is no longer automatically
+ trusted to supply -D<Macro[=Value]> overrides on the command-line. Going
+ forward, we recommend using TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST with shim configs that
+ include the main config. As a transition mechanism, we are temporarily
+ providing a work-around: the new build option WHITELIST_D_MACROS provides
+ a colon-separated list of macro names which may be overridden by the Exim
+ run-time user. The values of these macros are constrained to the regex
+ ^[A-Za-z0-9_/.-]*$ (which explicitly does allow for empty values).
+
+
+Version 4.72
+------------
+
+ 1. TWO SECURITY FIXES: one relating to mail-spools which are globally
+ writable, the other to locking of MBX folders (not mbox).
+
+ 2. MySQL stored procedures are now supported.
+
+ 3. The dkim_domain transport option is now a list, not a single string, and
+ messages will be signed for each element in the list (discarding
+ duplicates).
+
+ 4. The 4.70 release unexpectedly changed the behaviour of dnsdb TXT lookups
+ in the presence of multiple character strings within the RR. Prior to 4.70,
+ only the first string would be returned. The dnsdb lookup now, by default,
+ preserves the pre-4.70 semantics, but also now takes an extended output
+ separator specification. The separator can be followed by a semicolon, to
+ concatenate the individual text strings together with no join character,
+ or by a comma and a second separator character, in which case the text
+ strings within a TXT record are joined on that second character.
+ Administrators are reminded that DNS provides no ordering guarantees
+ between multiple records in an RRset. For example:
+
+ foo.example. IN TXT "a" "b" "c"
+ foo.example. IN TXT "d" "e" "f"
+
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/ txt=foo.example}} -> "a/d"
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/; txt=foo.example}} -> "def/abc"
+ ${lookup dnsdb{>/,+ txt=foo.example}} -> "a+b+c/d+e+f"
+
+
+Version 4.70 / 4.71
+-------------------
+
+ 1. Native DKIM support without an external library.
+ (Note that if no action to prevent it is taken, a straight upgrade will
+ result in DKIM verification of all signed incoming emails. See spec
+ for details on conditionally disabling)
+
+ 2. Experimental DCC support via dccifd (contributed by Wolfgang Breyha).
+
+ 3. There is now a bool{} expansion condition which maps certain strings to
+ true/false condition values (most likely of use in conjunction with the
+ and{} expansion operator).
+
+ 4. The $spam_score, $spam_bar and $spam_report variables are now available
+ at delivery time.
+
+ 5. exim -bP now supports "macros", "macro_list" or "macro MACRO_NAME" as
+ options, provided that Exim is invoked by an admin_user.
+
+ 6. There is a new option gnutls_compat_mode, when linked against GnuTLS,
+ which increases compatibility with older clients at the cost of decreased
+ security. Don't set this unless you need to support such clients.
+
+ 7. There is a new expansion operator, ${randint:...} which will produce a
+ "random" number less than the supplied integer. This randomness is
+ not guaranteed to be cryptographically strong, but depending upon how
+ Exim was built may be better than the most naive schemes.
+
+ 8. Exim now explicitly ensures that SHA256 is available when linked against
+ OpenSSL.
+
+ 9. The transport_filter_timeout option now applies to SMTP transports too.
+
