 New Features in Exim
 --------------------
@@ -8,41 +8,47 @@ but have not yet made it into the main manual (which is most conveniently
 updated when there is a relatively large batch of changes). The doc/ChangeLog
 file contains a listing of all changes, including bug fixes.
 
+Version 4.61
+------------
 
-Version 4.51
+PH/01 There is a new global option called disable_ipv6, which does exactly what
+      its name implies. If set true, even if the Exim binary has IPv6 support,
+      no IPv6 activities take place. AAAA records are never looked up for host
+      names given in manual routing data or elsewhere. AAAA records that are
+      received from the DNS as additional data for MX records are ignored. Any
+      IPv6 addresses that are listed in local_interfaces, manualroute route
+      data, etc. are also ignored. If IP literals are enabled, the ipliteral
+      router declines to handle IPv6 literal addresses.
+
+PH/01 There are now 20 of each type of ACL variable by default (instead of 10).
+      It is also possible to change the numbers by setting ACL_CVARS and/or
+      ACL_MVARS in Local/Makefile. Backward compatibility is maintained if you
+      upgrade to this release with existing messages containing ACL variable
+      settings on the queue. However, going in the other direction
+      (downgrading) will not be compatible; the values of ACL variables will be
+      lost.
+
+
+Version 4.60
 ------------
 
-PH/01. The format in which GnuTLS parameters are written to the gnutls-param
-       file in the spool directory has been changed. This change has been made
-       to alleviate problems that some people had with the generation of the
-       parameters by Exim when /dev/random was exhausted. In this situation,
-       Exim would hang until /dev/random acquired some more entropy.
+The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.60 release. Major new features since
+the 4.50 release are:
 
-       The new code exports and imports the DH and RSA parameters in PEM
-       format. This means that the parameters can be generated externally using
-       the certtool command that is part of GnuTLS.
+. Support for SQLite.
 
-       To replace the parameters with new ones, instead of deleting the file
-       and letting Exim re-create it, you can generate new parameters using
-       certtool and, when this has been done, replace Exim's cache file by
-       renaming. The relevant commands are something like this:
+. Support for IGNOREQUOTA in LMTP.
 
-         # rm -f new.params
-         # touch new.params
-         # chown exim:exim new.params
-         # chmod 0400 new.params
-         # certtool --generate-privkey --bits 512 >new.params
-         # echo "" >>new.params
-         # certtool --generate-dh-params --bits 1024 >> new.params
-         # mv new.params params
+. Extensions to the "submission mode" features.
 
-       If Exim never has to generate the parameters itself, the possibility of
-       stalling is removed.
+. Support for Client SMTP Authorization (CSA).
 
+. Support for ratelimiting hosts and users.
 
-Version 4.50
-------------
+. New expansion items to help with the BATV "prvs" scheme.
+
+. A "match_ip" condition, that matches an IP address against a list.
 
-The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.50 release.
+There are many more minor changes.
