+Version 4.83
+------------
+
+ 1. If built with the EXPERIMENTAL_PROXY feature enabled, Exim can be
+    configured to expect an initial header from a proxy that will make the
+    actual external source IP:host be used in exim instead of the IP of the
+    proxy that is connecting to it.
+
+ 2. When built with OpenSSL the smtp transport now supports options
+    "tls_verify_hosts" and "tls_try_verify_hosts".  If either is set the
+    certificate verification is split from the encryption operation. The
+    default remains that a failed verification cancels the encryption.

+    Some older OS's with earlier versions of GnuTLS might not have pkcs11 ability,
