We recommend +staying away from such names, if they are private ones (and in case of future +enhancements, alao header names that look like REs). + + +Exim version 4.93 +----------------- + +For a detailed list of changes that might affect Exim's operation with +an unchanged configuration, please see the doc/ChangeLog file. + +Build: + + * SUPPORT_DMARC replaces EXPERIMENTAL_DMARC + + * DISABLE_TLS replaces SUPPORT_TLS + + * Bump the version for the local_scan API. + +Runtime: + + * smtp transport option hosts_try_fastopen defaults to "*". + + * DNSSec is requested (not required) for all queries. (This seemes to + ask for trouble if your resolver is a systemd-resolved.) + + * Generic router option retry_use_local_part defaults to "true" under specific + pre-conditions. + + * Introduce a tainting mechanism for values read from untrusted sources. + + * Use longer file names for temporary spool files (this avoids + name conflicts with spool on a shared file system). + + * Use dsn_from main config option (was ignored previously). + + Exim version 4.92 -----------------
