 New Features in Exim

@@ -32,6 +32,14 @@ PH/03 If quota_warn_message contains a From: header, Exim now refrains from
       adding the default one. Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the
       errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used.
 
+PH/04 The variables $auth1, $auth2, $auth3 are now available in authenticators,
+      containing the same values as $1, $2, $3. The new variables are provided
+      because the numerical variables can be reset during string expansions
+      (for example, during a "match" operation) and so may lose the
+      authentication data. The preferred variables are now the new ones, with
+      the use of the numerical ones being deprecated, though the support will
+      not be removed, at least, not for a long time.
