4. If the building process was interrupted during the MakeLinks script, a
subsequent run of 'make' gave misleading errors. I've made it a bit more
use in the forthcoming Sieve addition to Exim.
56. The behaviour of -t in the presence of Resent- headers has been changed,
- for compability with Sendmail and other MTAs. Previously, Exim gave an

error, because it is not clear from RFC 2822 how this might be handled. It
turns out that MUAs don't seem to follow what RFC 2822 says, and any MUA
that uses -t with Resent- ensures that there is only one set of Resent-

An empty user name is not now passed to PAM; authentication is forcibly
failed instead. Also, if the end of the list of strings is reached, an

39. If a reverse DNS lookup yields an empty string, treat it as if the lookup

(ii) If the operation succeeded, but a failure string was present, "}" was

(iii) The alarm for the timeout was set with signal() instead of with
4. Change 4.11/30 below overlooked the case when an address gets a 4xx
response from a server. Because this isn't a host problem, the host does
not get delayed, and it gets tried every time the address is OK'd for
- routing, with the same reponse. However, if hosts_max_try is set, because

not all the hosts were tried, the address does not time out. I've changed
things so that if there is a 4xx response to a RCPT command, the host in
question does not count towards hosts_max_try if the message is older than
observed that getipnodebyname() gives HOST_NOT_FOUND for names for which a
DNS lookup gives TRY_AGAIN. See also change 125 below.

92. If a Reply-To: header contained newlines and was used to generate
SMTP connection, a pipe file descriptor was accidentally left open. This
meant that if there was a long chain of such processes, the number of open
file descriptors increased by one for each process, and if there were
