+PH/38 Installed a patch from Ian Freislich, with the agreement of Tom Kistner.
+      It corrects a timeout issue with spamd. This is Ian's comment: "The
+      background is that sometimes spamd either never reads data from a
+      connection it has accepted, or it never writes response data. The exiscan
+      spam.[ch] uses a 3600 second timeout on spamd socket reads, further, it
+      blindly assumes that writes won't block so it may never time out."
+
+PH/39 Allow G after quota size as well as K and M.
+
+PH/40 The value set for $authenticated_id in an authenticator may not contain
+      binary zeroes or newlines because the value is written to log lines and
+      to spool files. There was no check on this. Now the value is run through
+      the string_printing() function so that such characters are converted to
+      printable escape sequences.
+
+PH/41 $message_linecount is a new variable that contains the total number of
+      lines in the message. Compare $body_linecount, which is the count for the
+      body only.
+
+PH/42 Exim no longer gives details of delivery errors for specific addresses in
+      bounce and delay warning messages, except in certain special cases, which
+      are as follows:
+
+      (a) An SMTP error message from a remote host;
+      (b) A message specified in a :fail: redirection;
+      (c) A message specified in a "fail" command in a system filter;
+      (d) A message specified in a FAIL return from the queryprogram router;
+      (e) A message specified by the cannot_route_message router option.
+
+      In these cases only, Exim does include the error details in bounce and
+      warning messages. There are also a few cases where bland messages such
+      as "unrouteable address" or "local delivery error" are given.
+
+PH/43 $value is now also set for the "else" part of a ${run expansion.
