Change log file for Exim from version 4.21
-------------------------------------------
57. Double the size of the debug message buffer (to 2048) so that more of very
long debug lines gets shown.
+58. The exicyclog utility now does better if the number of log files to keep
+ exceeds 99. In this case, it numbers them 001, 002 ... instead of 01, 02...
+
Exim version 4.43

# This is a shell script for cycling exim main and reject log files. Each time
# it is run, the files get "shuffled down" by one, the current one (e.g.
# mainlog) becoming mainlog.01, the previous mainlog.01 becoming mainlog.02,
-# and so on, up to the limit configured here. The same happens to the reject
-# logs. All those with numbers greater than 1 are compressed.

+# greater than 99 (not common, but some people do it), three digits are used
+# (e.g. mainlog.001). The same shuffling happens to the reject logs. All
+# renamed files with numbers greater than 1 are compressed.
# This script should be called regularly (e.g. daily) by a root crontab
# entry of the form
# When the number is less than 10, insert a leading zero.
