 Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
 -------------------------------------------
@@ -106,6 +106,80 @@ PH/18 If quota_warn_message contains a From: header, Exim now refrains from
       adding the default one. Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the
       errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used.
 
+PH/19 When calculating a retry time, Exim used to measure the "time since
+      failure" by looking at the "first failed" field in the retry record. Now
+      it does not use this if it is later than than the arrival time of the
+      message. Instead it uses the arrival time. This makes for better
+      behaviour in cases where some deliveries succeed, thus re-setting the
+      "first failed" field. An example is a quota failure for a huge message
+      when small messages continue to be delivered. Without this change, the
+      "time since failure" will always be short, possible causing more frequent
+      delivery attempts for the huge message than are intended.
+
+PH/20 Added $auth1, $auth2, $auth3 to contain authentication data (as well as
+      $1, $2, $3) because the numerical variables can be reset during some
+      expansion items (e.g. "match"), thereby losing the authentication data.
+
+PH/21 Make -bV show the size of off_t variables so that the test suite can
+      decide whether to run tests for quotas > 2G.
+
+PH/22 Test the values given for quota, quota_filecount, quota_warn_threshold,
+      mailbox_size, and mailbox_filecount in the appendfile transport. If a
+      filecount value is greater than 2G or if a quota value is greater than 2G
+      on a system where the size of off_t is not greater than 4, a panic error
+      is given.
+
+PH/23 When a malformed item such as 1.2.3/24 appears in a host list, it can
+      never match. The debug and -bh output now contains an explicit error
+      message indicating a malformed IPv4 address or mask.
+
+PH/24 An host item such as 1.2.3.4/abc was being treated as the IP address
+      1.2.3.4 without a mask. Now it is not recognized as an IP address, and
+      PH/23 above applies.
+
+PH/25 Do not write to syslog when running in the test harness. The only
+      occasion when this arises is a failure to open the main or panic logs
+      (for which there is an explicit test).
+
+PH/26 Added the /no_tell option to "control=freeze".
+
+PH/27 If a host name lookup failed very early in a connection, for example, if
+      the IP address matched host_lookup and the reverse lookup yielded a name
+      that did not have a forward lookup, an error message of the form "no IP
+      address found for host xxx.xxx.xxx (during SMTP connection from NULL)"
+      could be logged. Now it outputs the IP address instead of "NULL".
+
+PH/28 An enabling patch from MH: add new function child_open_exim2() which
+      allows the sender and the authenticated sender to be set when
+      submitting a message from within Exim. Since child_open_exim() is
+      documented for local_scan(), the new function should be too.
+
+PH/29 In GnuTLS, a forced expansion failure for tls_privatekey was not being
+      ignored. In both GnuTLS and OpenSSL, an expansion of tls_privatekey that
+      results in an empty string is now treated as unset.
+
+PH/30 Fix eximon buffer overflow bug (Bugzilla #73).
+
+PH/31 Added sender_verify_fail logging option.
+
+PH/32 In November 2003, the code in Exim that added an empty Bcc: header when
+      needed by RFC 822 but not by RFC 2822 was commented out. I have now
+      tidied the source and removed it altogether.
+
+PH/33 When a queue run was abandoned because the load average was too high, a
+      log line was always written; now it is written only if the queue_run log
+      selector is set. In addition, the log line for abandonment now contains
+      information about the queue run such as the pid. This is always present
+      in "start" and "stop" lines but was omitted from the "abandon" line.
+
+PH/34 Omit spaces between a header name and the colon in the error message that
+      is given when verify = headers_syntax fails (if there are lots of them,
+      the message gets confusing).
+
+PH/35 Change the default for dns_check_names_pattern to allow slashes within
+      names, as there are now some PTR records that contain slashes. This check
+      is only to protect against broken name servers that fall over on strange
+      characters, so the fact that it applies to all lookups doesn't matter.
