Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
+NM/01 Bugzilla 592: --help option is handled incorrectly if exim is invoked
+ as mailq or other aliases. Changed the --help handling significantly
+ to do whats expected. exim_usage() emits usage/help information.
+
Exim version 4.68
-----------------
TK/01 Change PRVS address formatting scheme to reflect latests BATV draft
version.
+MH/01 The "spam" ACL condition code contained a sscanf() call with a %s
+ conversion specification without a maximum field width, thereby enabling
+ a rogue spamd server to cause a buffer overflow. While nobody in their
+ right mind would setup Exim to query an untrusted spamd server, an
+ attacker that gains access to a server running spamd could potentially
+ exploit this vulnerability to run arbitrary code as the Exim user.
+
+TK/02 Bugzilla 502: Apply patch to make the SPF-Received: header use
+ $primary_hostname instead of what libspf2 thinks the hosts name is.
+
+MH/02 The dsearch lookup now uses lstat(2) instead of stat(2) to look for
+ a directory entry by the name of the lookup key. Previously, if a
+ symlink pointed to a non-existing file or a file in a directory that
+ Exim lacked permissions to read, a lookup for a key matching that
+ symlink would fail. Now it is enough that a matching directory entry
+ exists, symlink or not. (Bugzilla 503.)
+
+PH/03 The body_linecount and body_zerocount variables are now exported in the
+ local_scan API.
+
+PH/04 Added the $dnslist_matched variable.
+
+PH/05 Unset $tls_cipher and $tls_peerdn before making a connection as a client.
+ This means they are set thereafter only if the connection becomes
+ encrypted.
+
+PH/06 Added the client_condition to authenticators so that some can be skipped
+ by clients under certain conditions.
+
+PH/07 The error message for a badly-placed control=no_multiline_responses left
+ "_responses" off the end of the name.
+
+PH/08 Added -Mvc to output a copy of a message in RFC 2822 format.
+
+PH/09 Tidied the code for creating ratelimiting keys, creating them explicitly
+ (without spaces) instead of just copying the configuration text.
+
+PH/10 Added the /noupdate option to the ratelimit ACL condition.
+
+PH/11 Added $max_received_linelength.
+
+PH/12 Added +ignore_defer and +include_defer to host lists.
+
+PH/13 Installed PCRE version 7.2. This needed some changes because of the new
+ way in which PCRE > 7.0 is built.
+
+PH/14 Implemented queue_only_load_latch.
+
+PH/15 Removed an incorrect (int) cast when reading the value of SIZE in a
+ MAIL command. The effect was to mangle the value on 64-bit systems.
+
+PH/16 Another patch from the Sieve maintainer.
+
+PH/17 Added the NOTQUIT ACL, based on a patch from Ted Cooper.
+
+PH/18 If a system quota error occurred while trying to create the file for
+ a maildir delivery, the message "Mailbox is full" was not appended to the
+ bounce if the delivery eventually timed out. Change 4.67/27 below applied
+ only to a quota excession during the actual writing of the file.
+
+PH/19 It seems that peer DN values may contain newlines (and other non-printing
+ characters?) which causes problems in log lines. The DN values are now
+ passed through string_printing() before being added to log lines.
+
+PH/20 Added the "servers=" facility to MySQL and PostgreSQL lookups. (Oracle
+ and InterBase are left for another time.)
+
+PH/21 Added message_body_newlines option.
+
+PH/22 Guard against possible overflow in moan_check_errorcopy().
+
+PH/23 POSIX allows open() to be a macro; guard against that.
+
+PH/24 If the recipient of an error message contained an @ in the local part
+ (suitably quoted, of course), incorrect values were put in $domain and
+ $local_part during the evaluation of errors_copy.
+
Exim version 4.67
