+Exim version 4.89
+-----------------
+
+ * SMTP CHUNKING in Exim 4.88 did not ensure that received mails had a final
+   newline; attempts to deliver such messages onwards to non-chunking hosts
+   would probably hang, as Exim does not insert the newline before a ".".
+   In 4.89, the newline is added upon receipt.  For already-received messages
+   in your queue, try util/chunking_fixqueue_finalnewlines.pl
+   to walk the queue, fixing any affected messages.  Note that because a
+   delivery attempt will be hanging, attempts to lock the messages for fixing
+   them will stall; stopping all queue-runners temporarily is recommended.
+
+ * OpenSSL: oldest supported release series is now 1.0.2, which is the oldest
+   supported by the OpenSSL project.  If you can build Exim with an older
+   release series, congratulations.  If you can't, then upgrade.
+   The file doc/openssl.txt contains instructions for installing a current
+   OpenSSL outside the system library paths and building Exim to use it.
+
+ * FreeBSD: we now always use the system iconv in libc, as all versions of
+   FreeBSD supported by the FreeBSD project provide this functionality.

+Exim version 4.88
+-----------------
+
+ * The "demime" ACL condition, deprecated for the past 10 years, has
+   now been removed.
+
+ * Old GnuTLS configuration options "gnutls_require_kx", "gnutls_require_mac",
+   and "gnutls_require_protocols" have now been removed.  (Inoperative from
+   4.80, per below; logging warnings since 4.83, again per below).
