| 3 | New Features in Exim | |
| 4 | -------------------- | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | This file contains descriptions of new features that have been added to Exim, | |
| 7 | but have not yet made it into the main manual (which is most conveniently | |
| 8 | updated when there is a relatively large batch of changes). The doc/ChangeLog | |
| 9 | file contains a listing of all changes, including bug fixes. | |

11 | Version 4.61 |
| 12 | ------------ | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | PH/01 There is a new global option called disable_ipv6, which does exactly what | |
| 15 | its name implies. If set true, even if the Exim binary has IPv6 support, | |
| c8ea1597 PH |
16 | no IPv6 activities take place. AAAA records are never looked up for host |
| 17 | names given in manual routing data or elsewhere. AAAA records that are | |
| 18 | received from the DNS as additional data for MX records are ignored. Any | |
| 19 | IPv6 addresses that are listed in local_interfaces, manualroute route | |
| 7e66e54d PH |
20 | data, etc. are also ignored. If IP literals are enabled, the ipliteral |
| 21 | router declines to handle IPv6 literal addresses. | |
| 22 | ||
| 064a94c9 | 23 | PH/02 There are now 20 of each type of ACL variable by default (instead of 10). |
| 47ca6d6c PH |
24 | It is also possible to change the numbers by setting ACL_CVARS and/or |
| 25 | ACL_MVARS in Local/Makefile. Backward compatibility is maintained if you | |
| 26 | upgrade to this release with existing messages containing ACL variable | |
| 27 | settings on the queue. However, going in the other direction | |
| 28 | (downgrading) will not be compatible; the values of ACL variables will be | |
| 29 | lost. | |
| 30 | ||
| 064a94c9 PH |
31 | PH/03 If quota_warn_message contains a From: header, Exim now refrains from |
| 32 | adding the default one. Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the | |
| 33 | errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used. | |
