+Version 4.86
+------------
+
+ 1. Support for using the system standard CA bundle.
+
+ 2. New expansion items $config_file, $config_dir, containing the file
+    and directory name of the main configuration file. Also $exim_version.
+
+ 3. New "malware=" support for Avast.
+
+ 4. New "spam=" variant option for Rspamd.
+
+ 5. Assorted options on malware= and spam= scanners.
+
+ 6. A commandline option to write a comment into the logfile.
+
+ 7. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_SOCKS feature enabled, the smtp transport can
+    be configured to make connections via socks5 proxies.
+
+ 8. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL, support is included for
+    the transmission of UTF-8 envelope addresses.
+
+ 9. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_INTERNATIONAL, an expansion item for a commonly
+    used encoding of Maildir folder names.
+
+10. A logging option for slow DNS lookups,
+
+11. New ${env {<variable>}} expansion.
+
+
+Version 4.85
+------------
+
+ 1. If built with EXPERIMENTAL_DANE feature enabled, Exim will follow the
+    DANE smtp draft to assess a secure chain of trust of the certificate
+    used to establish the TLS connection based on a TLSA record in the
+    domain of the sender.
+
+ 2. The EXPERIMENTAL_TPDA feature has been renamed to EXPERIMENTAL_EVENT
+    and several new events have been created. The reason is because it has
+    been expanded beyond just firing events during the transport phase. Any
+    existing TPDA transport options will have to be rewritten to use a new
+    $event_name expansion variable in a condition. Refer to the
+    experimental-spec.txt for details and examples.
+
+ 3. The EXPERIMENTAL_CERTNAMES features is an enhancement to verify that
+    server certs used for TLS match the result of the MX lookup. It does
+    not use the same mechanism as DANE.
