+3. There has been a change to the GnuTLS support (ChangeLog/PH/20) to improve
+Exim's performance. Unfortunately, this has the side effect of being slightly
+non-upwards compatible for versions 4.50 and earlier. If you are upgrading from
+one of these earlier versions and you use GnuTLS, you must remove the file
+called gnutls-params in Exim's spool directory. If you don't do this, you will
+see this error:
+
+  TLS error on connection from ... (DH params import): Base64 decoding error.
+
+Removing the file causes Exim to recompute the relevant encryption parameters
+and cache them in the new format that was introduced for release 4.51 (May
+2005). If you are upgrading from release 4.51 or later, there should be no
+problem.
