This may well have applied to all BSD + systems, as well as to others that have similar system calls. The broken + code found IPv4 interfaces correctly, but gave incorrect values for the + IPv6 interfaces. In particular, ::1 was not found. The effect in Exim was + that it would not match correctly against @[] and not recognize the IPv6 + addresses as local. + +PH/02 The ipliteral router was not recognizing addresses of the form user@ + [ipv6:....] because it didn't know about the "ipv6:" prefix. + +PH/03 Added disable_ipv6. + +PH/04 Changed $reply_address to use the raw form of the headers instead of the + decoded form, because it is most often used to construct To: headers + lines in autoreplies, and the decoded form may well be syntactically + invalid. However, $reply_address has leading white space removed, and all + newlines turned into spaces so that the autoreply transport does not + grumble. + + Exim version 4.60 ----------------- @@ -74,6 +98,98 @@ PH/08 When the original message was included in an autoreply transport, it even if body_only or headers_only was set.

In the case of bounce messages for non-SMTP mesages, there was + also a typo: it was using "Auto_submitted" (underscore instead of + hyphen). Since every message generated by Exim is necessarily in response + to another message, thes have all been changed to: + + Auto-Submitted: auto-replied + + in accordance with these statements in the RFC: + + The auto-replied keyword: + + - SHOULD be used on messages sent in direct response to another + message by an automatic process, + + - MUST NOT be used on manually-generated messages, + + - MAY be used on Delivery Status Notifications (DSNs) and Message + Disposition Notifications (MDNs), + + - MUST NOT be used on messages generated by automatic or periodic + processes, except for messages which are automatic responses to + other messages. + +PH/11 Added "${if def:sender_address {(envelope-from <$sender_address>)\n\t}}" + to the default Received: header definition. + +PH/12 Added log selector acl_warn_skipped (default on). + +PH/13 After a successful wildlsearch lookup, discard the values of numeric + variables because (a) they are in the wrong storage pool and (b) even if + they were copied, it wouldn't work properly because of the caching. + +PH/14 Add check_rfc2047_length to disable enforcement of RFC 2047 length + checking when decoding. Apparently there are clients that generate + overlong encoded strings. Why am I not surprised? + +PH/15 If the first argument of "${if match_address" was not empty, but did not + contain an "@" character, Exim crashed. Now it writes a panic log message + and treats the condition as false. + +PH/16 In autoreply, treat an empty string for "once" the same as unset. + +PH/17 A further patch from the Sieve maintainer: "Introduce the new Sieve + extension "envelope-auth". The code is finished and in agreement with + other implementations, but there is no documentation so far and in fact, + nobody wrote the draft yet. This extension is currently #undef'ed, thus + not changing the active code. + + Print executed "if" and "elsif" statements when debugging is used. This + helps a great deal to understand what a filter does. + + Document more things not specified clearly in RFC3028. I had all this + sorted out, when out of a sudden new issues came to my mind. Oops." + +PH/18 Exim was not recognizing the "net-" search type prefix in match_ip lists + (Bugzilla #53). + +PH/19 Exim expands the IPv6 address given to -bh to its full non-abbreviated + canonical form (as documented). However, after a host name lookup from + the IP address, check_host() was doing a simple string comparison with + addresses acquired from the DNS when checking that the found name did + have the original IP as one of its addresses. Since any found IPv6 + addresses are likely to be in abbreviated form, the comparison could + fail. Luckily, there already exists a function for doing the comparison + by converting both addresses to binary, so now that is used instead of + the text comparison. + +PH/20 There was another similar case to PH/19, when a complete host name was + given in a host list; looking up its IP address could give an abbreviated + form, whereas the current host's name might or might not be abbreviated. + The same fix has been applied. + Exim version 4.54 ----------------- @@ -102,6 +218,10 @@ TF/01 The control=submission/name=... option had a problem with syntax PH/05 Some modifications to the interface to the fake nameserver for the new testing suite. +PH/06 Add ${if def:sender_address {(envelope-from <$sender_address>)\n\t}} + into the default Received: header string. + + Exim version 4.53 -----------------
