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 | ||
47ca6d6c PH |
23 | PH/01 There are now 20 of each type of ACL variable by default (instead of 10). |
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. | |
