 Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
 -------------------------------------------
@@ -90,6 +90,66 @@ PH/15 Further to TK/02 and TK/03 above, tidied up the tables of what conditions
 
 PH/16 Installed updated OS/os.c-cygwin from the Cygwin maintainer.
 
+PH/17 The API for radiusclient changed at release 0.4.0. Unfortunately, the
+      header file does not have a version number, so I've had to invent a new
+      value for RADIUS_LIB_TYPE, namely "RADIUSCLIENTNEW" to request the new
+      API. The code is untested by me (my Linux distribution still has 0.3.2 of
+      radiusclient), but it was contributed by a Radius user.
+
+PH/18 Installed Lars Mainka's patch for the support of CRL collections in
+      files or directories, for OpenSSL.
+
+PH/19 When an Exim process that is running as root has to create an Exim log
+      file, it does so in a subprocess that runs as exim:exim so as to get the
+      ownership right at creation (otherwise, other Exim processes might see
+      the file with the wrong ownership). There was no test for failure of this
+      fork() call, which would lead to the process getting stuck as it waited
+      for a non-existent subprocess. Forks do occasionally fail when resources
+      run out. I reviewed all the other calls to fork(); they all seem to check
+      for failure.
+
+PH/20 When checking for unexpected SMTP input at connect time (before writing
+      the banner), Exim was not dealing correctly with a non-positive return
+      from the read() function. If the client had disconnected by this time,
+      the result was a log entry for a synchronization error with an empty
+      string after "input=" when read() returned zero. If read() returned -1
+      (an event I could not check), uninitialized data bytes were printed.
+      There were reports of junk text (parts of files, etc) appearing after
+      "input=".
+
+PH/21 Added acl_not_smtp_mime to allow for MIME scanning for non-SMTP messages.
+
+PH/22 Added support for macro redefinition, and (re)definition in between
+      driver and ACL definitions.
+
+PH/23 The cyrus_sasl authenticator was expanding server_hostname, but then
+      forgetting to use the resulting value; it was using the unexpanded value.
+
+PH/24 The cyrus_sasl authenticator was advertising mechanisms for which it
+      hadn't been configured. The fix is from Juergen Kreileder, who
+      understands it better than I do:
+
+      "Here's what I see happening with three configured cyrus_sasl
+      authenticators configured (plain, login, cram-md5):
+
+      On startup auth_cyrus_sasl_init() gets called for each of these.
+      This means three calls to sasl_listmech() without a specified mech_list.
+      => SASL tests which mechs of all available mechs actually work
+      => three warnings about OTP not working
+      => the returned list contains: plain, login, cram-md5, digest-md5, ...
+
+      With the patch, sasl_listmech() also gets called three times.  But now
+      SASL's mech_list option is set to the server_mech specified in the the
+      authenticator.  Or in other words, the answer from sasl_listmech()
+      gets limited to just the mech you're testing for (which is different
+      for each call.)
+      => the return list contains just 'plain' or 'login', 'cram-md5' or
+      nothing depending on the value of ob->server_mech.
+
+      I've just tested the patch: Authentication still works fine,
+      unavailable mechs specified in the exim configuration are still
+      caught, and the auth.log warnings about OTP are gone."
