For new +options, and new features, see the NewStuff file next to this ChangeLog. + + +Exim version 4.91 +----------------- + +JH/01 Replace the store_release() internal interface with store_newblock(), + which internalises the check required to safely use the old one, plus + the allocate and data copy operations duplicated in both (!) of the + extant use locations. + +JH/02 Disallow '/' characters in queue names specified for the "queue=" ACL + modifier. This matches the restriction on the commandline. + +JH/03 Fix pgsql lookup for multiple result-tuples with a single column. + Previously only the last row was returned. + +JH/04 Bug 2217: Tighten up the parsing of DKIM signature headers. Previously + we assumed that tags in the header were well-formed, and parsed the + element content after inspecting only the first char of the tag. + Assumptions at that stage could crash the receive process on malformed + input. + +JH/05 Bug 2215: Fix crash associated with dnsdb lookup done from DKIM ACL. + While running the DKIM ACL we operate on the Permanent memory pool so that + variables created with "set" persist to the DATA ACL. Also (at any time) + DNS lookups that fail create cache records using the Permanent pool. But + expansions release any allocations made on the current pool - so a dnsdb + lookup expansion done in the DKIM ACL releases the memory used for the + DNS negative-cache, and bad things result. Solution is to switch to the + Main pool for expansions. + While we're in that code, add checks on the DNS cache during store_reset, + active in the testsuite. + Problem spotted, and debugging aided, by Wolfgang Breyha. + +JH/06 Fix issue with continued-connections when the DNS shifts unreliably. + When none of the hosts presented to a transport match an already-open + connection, close it and proceed with the list. Previously we would + queue the message. Spotted by Lena with Yahoo, probably involving + round-robin DNS. + +JH/07 Bug 2214: Fix SMTP responses resulting from non-accept result of MIME ACL. + Previously a spurious "250 OK id=" response was appended to the proper + failure response. + +JH/08 The "support for" informational output now, which built with Content + Scanning support, has a line for the malware scanner interfaces compiled + in. Interface can be individually included or not at build time. + +JH/09 The "aveserver", "kavdaemon" and "mksd" interfaces are now not included + by the template makefile "src/EDITME". The "STREAM" support for an older + ClamAV interface method is removed. + +JH/10 Bug 2223: Fix mysql lookup returns for the no-data case (when the number of + rows affected is given instead). + +JH/11 The runtime Berkeley DB library version is now additionally output by + "exim -d -bV". Previously only the compile-time version was shown. + +JH/12 Bug 2230: Fix cutthrough routing for nonfirst messages in an initiating + SMTP connection. Previously, when one had more receipients than the + first, an abortive onward connection was made. Move to full support for + multiple onward connections in sequence, handling cutthrough connection + for all multi-message initiating connections. + +JH/13 Bug 2229: Fix cutthrough routing for nonstandard port numbers defined by + routers. Previously, a multi-recipient message would fail to match the + onward-connection opened for the first recipient, and cause its closure. + +JH/14 Bug 2174: A timeout on connect for a callout was also erroneously seen as + a timeout on read on a GnuTLS initiating connection, resulting in the + initiating connection being dropped. This mattered most when the callout + was marked defer_ok. Fix to keep the two timeout-detection methods + separate. + + +Exim version 4.90 +----------------- + +JH/01 Rework error string handling in TLS interface so that the caller in + more cases is responsible for logging. This permits library-sourced + string to be attached to addresses during delivery, and collapses + pairs of long lines into single ones. + +PP/01 Allow PKG_CONFIG_PATH to be set in Local/Makefile and use it correctly + during configuration. Wildcards are allowed and expanded. + +JH/02 Rework error string handling in DKIM to pass more info back to callers. + This permits better logging. + +JH/03 Rework the transport continued-connection mechanism: when TLS is active, + do not close it down and have the child transport start it up again on + the passed-on TCP connection. Instead, proxy the child (and any + subsequent ones) for TLS via a unix-domain socket channel. Logging is + affected: the continued delivery log lines do not have any DNSSEC, TLS + Certificate or OCSP information. TLS cipher information is still logged. + +JH/04 Shorten the log line for daemon startup by collapsing adjacent sets of + identical IP addresses on different listening ports. Will also affect + "exiwhat" output. + +PP/02 Bug 2070: uClibc defines __GLIBC__ without providing glibc headers; + add noisy ifdef guards to special-case this sillyness. + Patch from Bernd Kuhls. + +JH/05 Tighten up the checking in isip4 (et al): dotted-quad components larger + than 255 are no longer allowed. + +JH/06 Default openssl_options to include +no_ticket, to reduce load on peers. + Disable the session-cache too, which might reduce our load. Since we + currrectly use a new context for every connection, both as server and + client, there is no benefit for these. + GnuTLS appears to not support tickets server-side by default (we don't + call gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server()) but client side is enabled + by default on recent versions (3.1.3 +) unless the PFS priority string + is used (3.2.4 +). + +PP/03 Add $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH support for reproducible builds, per spec at + . + +JH/07 Fix smtp transport use of limited max_rcpt under mua_wrapper. Previously + the check for any unsuccessful recipients did not notice the limit, and + erroneously found still-pending ones. + +JH/08 Pipeline CHUNKING command and data together, on kernels that support + MSG_MORE. Only in-clear (not on TLS connections). + +JH/09 Avoid using a temporary file during transport using dkim. Unless a + transport-filter is involved we can buffer the headers in memory for + creating the signature, and read the spool data file once for the + signature and again for transmission. + +JH/10 Enable use of sendfile in Linux builds as default. It was disabled in + 4.77 as the kernel support then wasn't solid, having issues in 64bit + mode. Now, it's been long enough. Add support for FreeBSD also. + +JH/11 Bug 2104: Fix continued use of a transport connection with TLS. In the + case where the routing stage had gathered several addresses to send to + a host before calling the transport for the first, we previously failed + to close down TLS in the old transport process before passing the TCP + connection to the new process. The new one sent a STARTTLS command + which naturally failed, giving a failed delivery and bloating the retry + database. Investigation and fix prototype from Wolfgang Breyha. + +JH/12 Fix check on SMTP command input synchronisation. Previously there were + false-negatives in the check that the sender had not preempted a response + or prompt from Exim (running as a server), due to that code's lack of + awareness of the SMTP input buffering. + +PP/04 Add commandline_checks_require_admin option. + Exim drops privileges sanely, various checks such as -be aren't a + security problem, as long as you trust local users with access to their + own account. When invoked by services which pass untrusted data to + Exim, this might be an issue. Set this option in main configuration + AND make fixes to the calling application, such as using `--` to stop + processing options. + +JH/13 Do pipelining under TLS. Previously, although safe, no advantage was + taken. Now take care to pack both (client) MAIL,RCPT,DATA, and (server) + responses to those, into a single TLS record each way (this usually means + a single packet). As a side issue, smtp_enforce_sync now works on TLS + connections. + +PP/05 OpenSSL/1.1: use DH_bits() for more accurate DH param sizes. This + affects you only if you're dancing at the edge of the param size limits. + If you are, and this message makes sense to you, then: raise the + configured limit or use OpenSSL 1.1. Nothing we can do for older + versions. + +JH/14 For the "sock" variant of the malware scanner interface, accept an empty + cmdline element to get the documented default one. Previously it was + inaccessible. + +JH/15 Fix a crash in the smtp transport caused when two hosts in succession + are unsuable for non-message-specific reasons - eg. connection timeout, + banner-time rejection. + +JH/16 Fix logging of delivery remote port, when specified by router, under + callout/hold. + +PP/06 Repair manualroute's ability to take options in any order, even if one + is the name of a transport. + Fixes bug 2140. + +HS/01 Cleanup, prevent repeated use of -p/-oMr (CVE-2017-1000369) + +JH/17 Change the list-building routines interface to use the expanding-string + triplet model, for better allocation and copying behaviour. + +JH/18 Prebuild the data-structure for "builtin" macros, for faster startup. + Previously it was constructed the first time a possibly-matching string + was met in the configuration file input during startup; now it is done + during compilation. + +JH/19 Bug 2141: Use the full-complex API for Berkeley DB rather than the legacy- + compatible one, to avoid the (poorly documented) possibility of a config + file in the working directory redirecting the DB files, possibly correpting + some existing file. CVE-2017-10140 assigned for BDB. + +JH/20 Bug 2147: Do not defer for a verify-with-callout-and-random which is not + cache-hot. Previously, although the result was properly cached, the + initial verify call returned a defer. + +JH/21 Bug 2151: Avoid using SIZE on the MAIL for a callout verify, on any but + the main verify for receipient in uncached-mode. + +JH/22 Retire historical build files to an "unsupported" subdir. These are + defined as "ones for which we have no current evidence of testing". + +JH/23 DKIM: enforce the DNS pubkey record "h" permitted-hashes optional field, + if present. Previously it was ignored. + +JH/24 Start using specified-initialisers in C structure init coding. This is + a C99 feature (it's 2017, so now considered safe). + +JH/25 Use one-bit bitfields for flags in the "addr" data structure. Previously + if was a fixed-sized field and bitmask ops via macros; it is now more + extensible. + +PP/07 GitHub PR 56: Apply MariaDB build fix. + Patch provided by Jaroslav Škarvada. + +PP/08 Bug 2161: Fix regression in sieve quoted-printable handling introduced + during Coverity cleanups [4.87 JH/47] + Diagnosis and fix provided by Michael Fischer v. Mollard. + +JH/26 Fix DKIM bug: when the pseudoheader generated for signing was exactly + the right size to place the terminating semicolon on its own folded + line, the header hash was calculated to an incorrect value thanks to + the (relaxed) space the fold became. + +HS/02 Fix Bug 2130: large writes from the transport subprocess where chunked + and confused the parent. + +JH/27 Fix SOCKS bug: an unitialized pointer was deref'd by the transport process + which could crash as a result. This could lead to undeliverable messages. + +JH/28 Logging: "next input sent too soon" now shows where input was truncated + for log purposes. + +JH/29 Fix queue_run_in_order to ignore the PID portion of the message ID. This + matters on fast-turnover and PID-randomising systems, which were getting + out-of-order delivery. + +JH/30 Fix a logging bug on aarch64: an unsafe routine was previously used for + a possibly-overlapping copy. The symptom was that "Remote host closed + connection in response to HELO" was logged instead of the actual 4xx + error for the HELO. + +JH/31 Fix CHUNKING code to properly flush the unwanted chunk after an error. + Previously only that bufferd was discarded, resulting in SYMTP command + desynchronisation. + +JH/32 DKIM: when a message has multiple signatures matching an identity given + in dkim_verify_signers, run the dkim acl once for each. Previously only + one run was done. Bug 2189. + +JH/33 Downgrade an unfound-list name (usually a typo in the config file) from + "panic the current process" to "deliberately defer". The panic log is + still written with the problem list name; the mail and reject logs now + get a temp-reject line for the message that was being handled, saying + something like "domains check lookup or other defer". The SMTP 451 + message is still "Temporary local problem". + +JH/34 Bug 2199: Fix a use-after-free while reading smtp input for header lines. + A crafted sequence of BDAT commands could result in in-use memory beeing + freed. CVE-2017-16943. + +HS/03 Bug 2201: Fix checking for leading-dot on a line during headers reading + from SMTP input. Previously it was always done; now only done for DATA + and not BDAT commands. CVE-2017-16944. + +JH/35 Bug 2201: Flush received data in BDAT mode after detecting an error fatal + to the message (such as an overlong header line). Previously this was + not done and we did not exit BDAT mode. Followon from the previous item + though a different problem. + + +Exim version 4.89 +----------------- + +JH/01 Bug 1922: Support IDNA2008. This has slightly different conversion rules + than -2003 did; needs libidn2 in addition to libidn. + +JH/02 The path option on a pipe transport is now expanded before use. + +PP/01 GitHub PR 50: Do not call ldap_start_tls_s on ldapi:// connections. + Patch provided by "Björn", documentation fix added too. + +JH/03 Bug 2003: fix Proxy Protocol v2 handling: the address size field was + missing a wire-to-host endian conversion. + +JH/04 Bug 2004: fix CHUNKING in non-PIPELINEING mode. Chunk data following + close after a BDAT command line could be taken as a following command, + giving a synch failure. Fix by only checking for synch immediately + before acknowledging the chunk. + +PP/02 GitHub PR 52: many spelling fixes, which include fixing parsing of + no_require_dnssec option and creation of _HAVE_TRANSPORT_APPEND_MAILDIR + macro. Patches provided by Josh Soref. + +JH/05 Have the EHLO response advertise VRFY, if there is a vrfy ACL defined. + Previously we did not; the RFC seems ambiguous and VRFY is not listed + by IANA as a service extension. However, John Klensin suggests that we + should. + +JH/06 Bug 2017: Fix DKIM verification in -bh test mode. The data feed into + the dkim code may be unix-mode line endings rather than smtp wire-format + CRLF, so prepend a CR to any bare LF. + +JH/07 Rationalise the coding for callout smtp conversations and transport ones. + As a side-benfit, callouts can now use PIPELINING hence fewer round-trips. + +JH/08 Bug 2016: Fix DKIM verification vs. CHUNKING. Any BDAT commands after + the first were themselves being wrongly included in the feed into dkim + processing; with most chunk sizes in use this resulted in an incorrect + body hash calculated value. + +JH/09 Bug 2014: permit inclusion of a DKIM-Signature header in a received + DKIM signature block, for verification. Although advised against by + standards it is specifically not ruled illegal. + +JH/10 Bug 2025: Fix reception of (quoted) local-parts with embedded spaces. + +JH/11 Bug 2029: Fix crash in DKIM verification when a message signature block is + missing a body hash (the bh= tag). + +JH/12 Bug 2018: Re-order Proxy Protocol startup versus TLS-on-connect startup. + It seems that HAProxy sends the Proxy Protocol information in clear and + only then does a TLS startup, so do the same. + +JH/13 Bug 2027: Avoid attempting to use TCP Fast Open for non-transport client + TCP connections (such as for Spamd) unless the daemon successfully set + Fast Open mode on its listening sockets. This fixes breakage seen on + too-old kernels or those not configured for Fast Open, at the cost of + requiring both directions being enabled for TFO, and TFO never being used + by non-daemon-related Exim processes. + +JH/14 Bug 2000: Reject messages recieved with CHUNKING but with malformed line + endings, at least on the first header line. Try to canonify any that get + past that check, despite the cost. + +JH/15 Angle-bracket nesting (an error inserted by broken sendmails) levels are + now limited to an arbitrary five deep, while parsing addresses with the + strip_excess_angle_brackets option enabled. + +PP/03 Bug 2018: For Proxy Protocol and TLS-on-connect, do not over-read and + instead leave the unprompted TLS handshake in socket buffer for the + TLS library to consume. + +PP/04 Bug 2018: Also handle Proxy Protocol v2 safely. + +PP/05 FreeBSD compat: handle that Ports no longer create /usr/bin/perl + +JH/16 Drop variables when they go out of scope. Memory management drops a whole + region in one operation, for speed, and this leaves assigned pointers + dangling. Add checks run only under the testsuite which checks all + variables at a store-reset and panics on a dangling pointer; add code + explicitly nulling out all the variables discovered. Fixes one known + bug: a transport crash, where a dangling pointer for $sending_ip_address + originally assigned in a verify callout, is re-used. + +PP/06 Drop '.' from @INC in various Perl scripts. + +PP/07 Switch FreeBSD iconv to always use the base-system libc functions. + +PP/08 Reduce a number of compilation warnings under clang; building with + CC=clang CFLAGS+=-Wno-dangling-else -Wno-logical-op-parentheses + should be warning-free. + +JH/17 Fix inbound CHUNKING when DKIM disabled at runtime. + +HS/01 Fix portability problems introduced by PP/08 for platforms where + realloc(NULL) is not equivalent to malloc() [SunOS et al]. + +HS/02 Bug 1974: Fix missing line terminator on the last received BDAT + chunk. This allows us to accept broken chunked messages. We need a more + general solution here. + +PP/09 Wrote util/chunking_fixqueue_finalnewlines.pl to help recover + already-broken messages in the queue. + +JH/18 Bug 2061: Fix ${extract } corrupting an enclosing ${reduce } $value. + +JH/19 Fix reference counting bug in routing-generated-address tracking. + + +Exim version 4.88 +----------------- + +JH/01 Use SIZE on MAIL FROM in a cutthrough connection, if the destination + supports it and a size is available (ie. the sending peer gave us one). + +JH/02 The obsolete acl condition "demime" is removed (finally, after ten + years of being deprecated). The replacements are the ACLs + acl_smtp_mime and acl_not_smtp_mime. + +JH/03 Upgrade security requirements imposed for hosts_try_dane: previously + a downgraded non-dane trust-anchor for the TLS connection (CA-style) + or even an in-clear connection were permitted. Now, if the host lookup + was dnssec and dane was requested then the host is only used if the + TLSA lookup succeeds and is dnssec. Further hosts (eg. lower priority + MXs) will be tried (for hosts_try_dane though not for hosts_require_dane) + if one fails this test. + This means that a poorly-configured remote DNS will make it incommunicado; + but it protects against a DNS-interception attack on it. + +JH/04 Bug 1810: make continued-use of an open smtp transport connection + non-noisy when a race steals the message being considered. + +JH/05 If main configuration option tls_certificate is unset, generate a + self-signed certificate for inbound TLS connections. + +JH/06 Bug 165: hide more cases of password exposure - this time in expansions + in rewrites and routers. + +JH/07 Retire gnutls_require_mac et.al. These were nonfunctional since 4.80 + and logged a warning sing 4.83; now they are a configuration file error. + +JH/08 Bug 1836: Fix crash in VRFY handling when handed an unqualified name + (lacking @domain). Apply the same qualification processing as RCPT. + +JH/09 Bug 1804: Avoid writing msglog files when in -bh or -bhc mode. + +JH/10 Support ${sha256:} applied to a string (as well as the previous + certificate). + +JH/11 Cutthrough: avoid using the callout hints db on a verify callout when + a cutthrough deliver is pending, as we always want to make a connection. + This also avoids re-routing the message when later placing the cutthrough + connection after a verify cache hit. + Do not update it with the verify result either. + +JH/12 Cutthrough: disable when verify option success_on_redirect is used, and + when routing results in more than one destination address. + +JH/13 Cutthrough: expand transport dkim_domain option when testing for dkim + signing (which inhibits the cutthrough capability). Previously only + the presence of an option was tested; now an expansion evaluating as + empty is permissible (obviously it should depend only on data available + when the cutthrough connection is made). + +JH/14 Fix logging of errors under PIPELINING. Previously the log line giving + the relevant preceding SMTP command did not note the pipelining mode. + +JH/15 Fix counting of empty lines in $body_linecount and $message_linecount. + Previously they were not counted. + +JH/16 DANE: treat a TLSA lookup response having all non-TLSA RRs, the same + as one having no matching records. Previously we deferred the message + that needed the lookup. + +JH/17 Fakereject: previously logged as a normal message arrival "<="; now + distinguished as "(=". + +JH/18 Bug 1867: make the fail_defer_domains option on a dnslookup router work + for missing MX records. Previously it only worked for missing A records. + +JH/19 Bug 1850: support Radius libraries that return REJECT_RC. + +JH/20 Bug 1872: Ensure that acl_smtp_notquit is run when the connection drops + after the data-go-ahead and data-ack. Patch from Jason Betts. + +JH/21 Bug 1846: Send DMARC forensic reports for reject and quarantine results, + even for a "none" policy. Patch from Tony Meyer. + +JH/22 Fix continued use of a connection for further deliveries. If a port was + specified by a router, it must also match for the delivery to be + compatible. + +JH/23 Bug 1874: fix continued use of a connection for further deliveries. + When one of the recipients of a message was unsuitable for the connection + (has no matching addresses), we lost track of needing to mark it + deferred. As a result mail would be lost. + +JH/24 Bug 1832: Log EHLO response on getting conn-close response for HELO. + +JH/25 Decoding ACL controls is now done using a binary search; the source code + takes up less space and should be simpler to maintain. Merge the ACL + condition decode tables also, with similar effect. + +JH/26 Fix problem with one_time used on a redirect router which returned the + parent address unchanged. A retry would see the parent address marked as + delivered, so not attempt the (identical) child. As a result mail would + be lost. + +JH/27 Fix a possible security hole, wherein a process operating with the Exim + UID can gain a root shell. Credit to http://www.halfdog.net/ for + discovery and writeup. Ubuntu bug 1580454; no bug raised against Exim + itself :( + +JH/28 Enable {spool,log} filesystem space and inode checks as default. + Main config options check_{log,spool}_{inodes,space} are now + 100 inodes, 10MB unless set otherwise in the configuration. + +JH/29 Fix the connection_reject log selector to apply to the connect ACL. + Previously it only applied to the main-section connection policy + options. + +JH/30 Bug 1897: fix callouts connection fallback from TLS to cleartext. + +PP/01 Changed default Diffie-Hellman parameters to be Exim-specific, created + by me. Added RFC7919 DH primes as an alternative. + +PP/02 Unbreak build via pkg-config with new hash support when crypto headers + are not in the system include path. + +JH/31 Fix longstanding bug with aborted TLS server connection handling. Under + GnuTLS, when a session startup failed (eg because the client disconnected) + Exim did stdio operations after fclose. This was exposed by a recent + change which nulled out the file handle after the fclose. + +JH/32 Bug 1909: Fix OCSP proof verification for cases where the proof is + signed directly by the cert-signing cert, rather than an intermediate + OCSP-signing cert. This is the model used by LetsEncrypt. + +JH/33 Bug 1914: Ensure socket is nonblocking before draining after SMTP QUIT. + +HS/01 Fix leak in verify callout under GnuTLS, about 3MB per recipient on + an incoming connection. + +HS/02 Bug 1802: Do not half-close the connection after sending a request + to rspamd. + +HS/03 Use "auto" as the default EC curve parameter. For OpenSSL < 1.0.2 + fallback to "prime256v1". + +JH/34 SECURITY: Use proper copy of DATA command in error message. + Could leak key material. Remotely exploitable. CVE-2016-9963. + + +Exim version 4.87 +----------------- + +JH/01 Bug 1664: Disable OCSP for GnuTLS library versions at/before 3.3.16 + and 3.4.4 - once the server is enabled to respond to an OCSP request + it does even when not requested, resulting in a stapling non-aware + client dropping the TLS connection. + +TF/01 Code cleanup: Overhaul the debug_selector and log_selector machinery to + support variable-length bit vectors. No functional change. + +TF/02 Improve the consistency of logging incoming and outgoing interfaces. + The I= interface field on outgoing lines is now after the H= remote + host field, same as incoming lines. There is a separate + outgoing_interface log selector which allows you to disable the + outgoing I= field. + +JH/02 Bug 728: Close logfiles after a daemon-process "exceptional" log write. + If not running log_selector +smtp_connection the mainlog would be held + open indefinitely after a "too many connections" event, including to a + deleted file after a log rotate. Leave the per net connection logging + leaving it open for efficiency as that will be quickly detected by the + check on the next write. + +HS/01 Bug 1671: Fix post transport crash. + Processing the wait- messages could crash the delivery + process if the message IDs didn't exist for some reason. When + using 'split_spool_directory=yes' the construction of the spool + file name failed already, exposing the same netto behaviour. + +JH/03 Bug 425: Capture substrings in $regex1, $regex2 etc from regex & + mime_regex ACL conditions. + +JH/04 Bug 1686: When compiled with EXPERIMENTAL_DSN_INFO: Add extra information + to DSN fail messages (bounces): remote IP, remote greeting, remote response + to HELO, local diagnostic string. + +JH/05 Downgrade message for a TLS-certificate-based authentication fail from + log line to debug. Even when configured with a tls authenticator many + client connections are expected to not authenticate in this way, so + an authenticate fail is not an error. + +HS/02 Add the Exim version string to the process info. This way exiwhat + gives some more detail about the running daemon. + +JH/06 Bug 1395: time-limit caching of DNS lookups, to the TTL value. This may + matter for fast-change records such as DNSBLs. + +JH/07 Bug 1678: Always record an interface option value, if set, as part of a + retry record, even if constant. There may be multiple transports with + different interface settings and the retry behaviour needs to be kept + distinct. + +JH/08 Bug 1586: exiqgrep now refuses to run if there are unexpected arguments. + +JH/09 Bug 1700: ignore space & tab embedded in base64 during decode. + +JH/10 Bug 840: fix log_defer_output option of pipe transport + +JH/11 Bug 830: use same host for all RCPTS of a message, even under + hosts_randomize. This matters a lot when combined with mua_wrapper. + +JH/12 Bug 1706: percent and underbar characters are no longer escaped by the + ${quote_pgsql:} operator. + +JH/13 Bug 1708: avoid misaligned access in cached lookup. + +JH/14 Change header file name for freeradius-client. Relevant if compiling + with Radius support; from the Gentoo tree and checked under Fedora. + +JH/15 Bug 1712: Introduce $prdr_requested flag variable + +JH/16 Bug 1714: Permit an empty string as expansion result for transport + option transport_filter, meaning no filtering. + +JH/17 Bug 1713: Fix non-PDKIM_DEBUG build. Patch from Jasen Betts. + +JH/18 Bug 1709: When built with TLS support, the tls_advertise_hosts option now + defaults to "*" (all hosts). The variable is now available when not built + with TLS, default unset, mainly to enable keeping the testsuite sane. + If a server certificate is not supplied (via tls_certificate) an error is + logged, and clients will find TLS connections fail on startup. Presumably + they will retry in-clear. + Packagers of Exim are strongly encouraged to create a server certificate + at installation time. + +HS/03 Add -bP config_file as a synonym for -bP configure_file, for consistency + with the $config_file variable. + +JH/19 Two additional event types: msg:rcpt:defer and msg:rcpt:host:defer. Both + in transport context, after the attempt, and per-recipient. The latter type + is per host attempted.

Also, make Exim more robust to bad + data from the Dovecot auth socket. + +TF/01 Fix ultimate retry timeouts for intermittently deliverable recipients. + + When a queue runner is handling a message, Exim first routes the + recipient addresses, during which it prunes them based on the retry + hints database. After that it attempts to deliver the message to + any remaining recipients. It then updates the hints database using + the retry rules. + + So if a recipient address works intermittently, it can get repeatedly + deferred at routing time. The retry hints record remains fresh so the + address never reaches the final cutoff time. + + This is a fairly common occurrence when a user is bumping up against + their storage quota. Exim had some logic in its local delivery code + to deal with this. However it did not apply to per-recipient defers + in remote deliveries, e.g. over LMTP to a separate IMAP message store. + + This change adds a proper retry rule check during routing so that the + final cutoff time is checked against the message's age. We only do + this check if there is an address retry record and there is not a + domain retry record; this implies that previous attempts to handle + the address had the retry_use_local_parts option turned on. We use + this as an approximation for the destination being like a local + delivery, as in LMTP. + + I suspect this new check makes the old local delivery cutoff check + redundant, but I have not verified this so I left the code in place. + +TF/02 Correct gecos expansion when From: is a prefix of the username. + + Test 0254 submits a message to Exim with the header + + Resent-From: f + + When I ran the test suite under the user fanf2, Exim expanded + the header to contain my full name, whereas it should have added + a Resent-Sender: header.

The /leaky, /strict, and /readonly update modes + are mutually exclusive. The update mode is no longer included in the + database key; it just determines when the database is updated. (This + means that when you upgrade Exim will forget old rate measurements.) + + Exim now checks that the per_* options are used with an update mode that + makes sense for the current ACL. For example, when Exim is processing a + message (e.g. acl_smtp_rcpt or acl_smtp_data, etc.) you can specify + per_mail/leaky or per_mail/strict; otherwise (e.g. in acl_smtp_helo) you + must specify per_mail/readonly. If you omit the update mode it defaults to + /leaky where that makes sense (as before) or /readonly where required. + + The /noupdate option is now undocumented but still supported for + backwards compatibility. It is equivalent to /readonly except that in + ACLs where /readonly is required you may specify /leaky/noupdate or + /strict/noupdate which are treated the same as /readonly. + + A useful new feature is the /count= option. This is a generalization + of the per_byte option, so that you can measure the throughput of other + aggregate values. For example, the per_byte option is now equivalent + to per_mail/count=${if >{0}{$message_size} {0} {$message_size} }. + + The per_rcpt option has been generalized using the /count= mechanism + (though it's more complicated than the per_byte equivalence). When it is + used in acl_smtp_rcpt, the per_rcpt option adds recipients to the + measured rate one at a time; if it is used later (e.g. in acl_smtp_data) + or in a non-SMTP ACL it adds all the recipients in one go. (The latter + /count=$recipients_count behaviour used to work only in non-SMTP ACLs.) + Note that using per_rcpt with a non-readonly update mode in more than + one ACL will cause the recipients to be double-counted. (The per_mail + and per_byte options don't have this problem.) + + The handling of very low rates has changed slightly. If the computed rate + is less than the event's count (usually one) then this event is the first + after a long gap. In this case the rate is set to the same as this event's + count, so that the first message of a spam run is counted properly. + + The major new feature is a mechanism for counting the rate of unique + events. The new per_addr option counts the number of different + recipients that someone has sent messages to in the last time period. It + behaves like per_rcpt if all the recipient addresses are different, but + duplicate recipient addresses do not increase the measured rate. Like + the /count= option this is a general mechanism, so the per_addr option + is equivalent to per_rcpt/unique=$local_part@$domain.
