Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
Exim version 4.51
-----------------
-TK/01. Added Yahoo DomainKeys support via libdomainkeys. See
- doc/experimental-spec.txt for details. (http://domainkeys.sf.net)
-
-TK/02. Fix ACL "control" statment not being available in MIME ACL.
-
-TK/03. Fix ACL "regex" condition not being available in MIME ACL.
-
-PH/01. Installed a patch from the Sieve maintainer that allows -bf to be used
- to test Sieve filters that use "vacation".
-
-PH/02. Installed a slightly modified version of Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos' patch
- that changes the way the GnuTLS parameters are stored in the cache file.
- The new format can be generated externally. For backward compatibility,
- if the data in the cache doesn't make sense, Exim assumes it has read an
- old-format file, and it generates new data and writes a new file. This
- means that you can't go back to an older release without removing the
- file.
-
-PH/03. A redirect router that has both "unseen" and "one_time" set does not
- work if there are any delivery delays because "one_time" forces the
- parent to be marked "delivered", so its unseen clone is never tried
- again. For this reason, Exim now forbids the simultaneous setting of
- these two options.
-
-PH/04. Change 4.11/85 fixed an obscure bug concerned with addresses that are
- redirected to themselves ("homonym" addresses). Read the long ChangeLog
- entry if you want to know the details. The fix, however, neglected to
- consider the case when local delivery batching is involved. The test for
- "previously delivered" was not happening when checking to see if an
- address could be batched with a previous (undelivered) one; under
- certain circumstances this could lead to multiple deliveries to the same
- address. A one-line patch to add the appropriate test fixes the bug.
-
-PH/05. Renamed the macro SOCKLEN_T as EXIM_SOCKLEN_T because AIX uses SOCKLEN_T
- in its include files, and this causes problems building Exim.
-
-PH/06. A number of "verify =" ACL conditions have no options (e.g. verify =
- header_syntax) but Exim was just ignoring anything given after a slash.
- In particular, this caused confusion with an attempt to use "verify =
- reverse_host_lookup/defer_ok". An error is now given when options are
- supplied for verify items that do not have them. (Maybe reverse_host_
- lookup should have a defer_ok option, but that's a different point.)
-
-PH/07. Increase the size of the buffer for incoming SMTP commands from 512 (as
- defined by RFC 821) to 2048, because there were problems with some AUTH
- commands, and RFC 1869 says the size should be increased for extended
- SMTP commands that take arguments.

+ SMTP commands that take arguments.
+
+PH/08 Added ${dlfunc dynamically loaded function for expansion (code from Tony
+ Finch).
+
+PH/09 Previously, an attempt to use ${perl when it wasn't compiled gave an
+ "unknown" error; now it says that the functionality isn't in the binary.
+
+PH/10 Added a nasty fudge to try to recognize and flatten LDAP passwords in
+ an address' error message when a string expansion fails (syntax or
+ whatever). Otherwise not only does the password appear in the log, it may
+ also be put in a bounce message.
+
+PH/11 Installed exipick version 20050225.0 from John Jetmore.
+
+PH/12 If the last host in a fallback_hosts list was multihomed, only the first
+ of its addresses was ever tried. (Bugzilla bug #2.)
+
+PH/13 If "headers_add" in a transport didn't end in a newline, Exim printed
+ the result incorrectly in the debug output. (It correctly added a newline
+ to what was transported.)
+
+TF/01 Added $received_time.
+
+PH/14 Modified the default configuration to add an acl_smtp_data ACL, with
+ commented out examples of how to interface to a virus scanner and to
+ SpamAssassin. Also added commented examples of av_scanner and
+ spamd_address settings.
+
+PH/15 Further to TK/02 and TK/03 above, tidied up the tables of what conditions
+ and controls are allowed in which ACLs. There were a couple of minor
+ errors. Some of the entries in the conditions table (which is a table of
+ where they are NOT allowed) were getting very unwieldy; rewrote them as a
+ negation of where the condition IS allowed.
+
+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.
