Once the documentation is updated, this file is reduced to a short list. +Version 4.91 +-------------- + + 1. Dual-certificate stacks on servers now support OCSP stapling, under GnuTLS + version 3.5.6 or later. + + 2. DANE is now supported under GnuTLS version 3.0.0 or later (adding to the + previous OpenSSL implementation, but still Experimental). + + 3. Feature macros for the compiled-in set of malware scanner interfaces. + + 4. SPF support is promoted from Experimental to mainline status. The template + src/EDITME makefile does not enable its inclusion. + + 5. Logging control for DKIM verification. The existing DKIM log line is + controlled by a "dkim_verbose" selector which is _not_ enabled by default. + A new tag "DKIM=" is added to <= lines by default, controlled by + a "dkim" log_selector. + + 6. Receive duration on <= lines, under a new log_selector "receive_time". + + 7. Options "ipv4_only" and "ipv4_prefer" on the dnslookup router and on + routing rules in the manualroute router. + + 8. Expansion item ${sha3:} / ${sha3_:} now also supported + under OpenSSL version 1.1.1 or later. + + 9. DKIM operations can now use the Ed25519 algorithm in addition to RSA, under + GnuTLS 3.6.0 or later. + +10. Builtin feature-macros _CRYPTO_HASH_SHA3 and _CRYPTO_SIGN_ED25519, library + version dependent. + +11. "exim -bP macro " returns caller-usable status. + + +Version 4.90 +------------ + + 1. PKG_CONFIG_PATH can now be set in Local/Makefile; + wildcards will be expanded, values are collapsed. + + 2. The ${readsocket } expansion now takes an option to not shutdown the + connection after sending the query string. The default remains to do so. + + 3. An smtp transport option "hosts_noproxy_tls" to control whether multiple + deliveries on a single TCP connection can maintain a TLS connection + open. By default disabled for all hosts, doing so saves the cost of + making new TLS sessions, at the cost of having to proxy the data via + another process. Logging is also affected. + + 4. A malware connection type for the FPSCAND protocol. + + 5. An option for recipient verify callouts to hold the connection open for + further recipients and for delivery. + + 6. The reproducible build $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable is now + supported. + + 7. Optionally, an alternate format for spool data-files which matches the + wire format - meaning more efficient reception and transmission (at the + cost of difficulty with standard Unix tools). Only used for messages + received using the ESMTP CHUNKING option, and when a new main-section + option "spool_wireformat" (false by default) is set. + + 8. New main configuration option "commandline_checks_require_admin" to + restrict who can use various introspection options. + + 9. New option modifier "no_check" for quota and quota_filecount + appendfile transport. + +10. Variable $smtp_command_history returning a comma-sep list of recent + SMTP commands. + +11. Millisecond timetamps in logs, on log_selector "millisec". Also affects + log elements QT, DT and D, and timstamps in debug output. + +12. TCP Fast Open logging. As a server, logs when the SMTP banner was sent + while still in SYN_RECV state; as a client logs when the connection + is opened with a TFO cookie. + +13. DKIM support for multiple signing, by domain and/or key-selector. + DKIM support for multiple hashes, and for alternate-identity tags. + Builtin macro with default list of signed headers. + Better syntax for specifying oversigning. + The DKIM ACL can override verification status, and status is visible in + the data ACL. + +14. Exipick understands -C|--config for an alternative Exim + configuration file. + +15. TCP Fast Open used, with data-on-SYN, for client SMTP via SOCKS5 proxy, + for ${readsocket } expansions, and for ClamAV. + +16. The "-be" expansion test mode now supports macros. Macros are expanded + in test lines, and new macros can be defined. + +17. Support for server-side dual-certificate-stacks (eg. RSA + ECDSA). + + Version 4.89 ------------ 1. Allow relative config file names for ".include" + 2. A main-section config option "debug_store" to control the checks on + variable locations during store-reset. Normally false but can be enabled + when a memory corrution issue is suspected on a production system. + Version 4.88 ------------ @@ -360,7 +464,8 @@ Version 4.82 It adds new expansion variables $dmarc_ar_header, $dmarc_status, $dmarc_status_text, and $dmarc_used_domain.
