Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
But simultaneously result of request was absolutely normal ldap result,
so I produce this patch..."
+55. Some experimental protocols are using DNS PTR records for new purposes. The
+ keys for these records are domain names, not reversed IP addresses. The
+ dnsdb PTR lookup now tests whether its key is an IP address. If not, it
+ leaves it alone. Component reversal etc. now happens only for IP addresses.
+
+56. Improve error message when ldap_search() fails in OpenLDAP or Solaris LDAP.
+
+57. Double the size of the debug message buffer (to 2048) so that more of very
+ long debug lines gets shown.
+
+58. The exicyclog utility now does better if the number of log files to keep
+ exceeds 99. In this case, it numbers them 001, 002 ... instead of 01, 02...
+
+59. Two changes related to the smtp_active_hostname option:
+
+ (1) $smtp_active_hostname is now available as a variable.
+ (2) The default for smtp_banner uses $smtp_active_hostname instead
+ of $primary_hostname.
+
+60. The host_aton() function is supposed to be passed a string that is known
+ to be a valid IP address. However, in the case of IPv6 addresses, it was
+ not checking this. This is a hostage to fortune. Exim now panics and dies
+ if the condition is not met. A case was found where this could be provoked
+ from a dnsdb lookup; fortuitously, this particular loophole had already
+ been fixed by change 4.50/55 above. If there are any other similar
+ loopholes, the new check should stop them being exploited.
+
Exim version 4.43
