     sends the TLS Server Name Indication extension, to permit choosing a
     different certificate; tls_privatekey will also be re-expanded.  You must
     still set these options to expand to valid files when $tls_sni is not set.

+    The SMTP Transport has gained the option tls_sni, which will set a hostname
+    for outbound TLS sessions, and set $tls_sni too.

+ 8. The existing "accept_8bitmime" option now defaults to true.  This means
+    that Exim is deliberately not strictly RFC compliant.  We're following
+    Dan Bernstein's advice in http://cr.yp.to/smtp/8bitmime.html by default.
+    Those who disagree, or know that they are talking to mail servers that,
+    even today, are not 8-bit clean, need to turn off this option.
+
+ 9. Exim can now be started with -bw (with an optional timeout, given as
+    -bw<timespec>).  With this, stdin at startup is a socket that is
+    already listening for connections.  This has a more modern name of
+    "socket activation", but forcing the activated socket to fd 0.  We're
+    interested in adding more support for modern variants.
