 Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
 -------------------------------------------
 
+Exim version 4.61
+-----------------
+
+PH/01 The code for finding all the local interface addresses on a FreeBSD
+      system running IPv6 was broken. 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.
+
+PH/05 If group was specified without a user on a router, and no group or user
+      was specified on a transport, the group from the router was ignored.
+
+PH/06 Increased the number of ACL variables to 20 of each type, and arranged
+      for visible compile-time settings that can be used to change these
+      numbers, for those that want even more. Backwards compatibility with old
+      spool files has been maintained. However, going back to a previous Exim
+      release will lost any variables that are in spool files.
+
+PH/07 Two small changes when running in the test harness: increase delay when
+      passing a TCP/IP connection to a new process, in case the original
+      process has to generate a bounce, and remove special handling of
+      127.0.0.2 (sic), which is no longer necessary.
+
+PH/08 Changed debug output of dbfn_open() flags from numbers to names, so as to
+      be the same on different OS.
+
+PH/09 Moved a debug statement in filter processing to avoid a race problem when
+      testing.
+
+JJ/01 exipick: fixed bug where -b (brief) output option showed "Vars:"
+      whether --show-vars was specified or not
+
+JJ/02 exipick: Added support for new ACL variable spool format introduced
+      in 4.61-PH/06
+
+PH/10 Fixed another bug related to PH/04 above: if an incoming message had a
+      syntactically invalid From: or Reply-to: line, and a filter used this to
+      generate an autoreply, and therefore failed to obtain an address for the
+      autoreply, Exim could try to deliver to a non-existent relative file
+      name, causing unrelated and misleading errors. What now happens is that
+      it logs this as a hard delivery error, but does not attempt to create a
+      bounce message.
+

 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.
