   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.
  10
  11 Version 4.61
  12 ------------
  13
  14 The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.61 release. Major new features since
  15 the 4.60 release are:
  16
  17 . An option called disable_ipv6, to disable the use of IPv6 completely.
  18
  19 . An increase in the number of ACL variables to 20 of each type.
  20
  21 . A change to use $auth1, $auth2, and $auth3 in authenticators instead of $1,
  22   $2, $3, (though those are still set) because the numeric variables get used
  23   for other things in complicated expansions.
  24
  25 . The default for rfc4131_query_timeout has been changed from 30s to 5s.
  26
  27 . It is possible to use setclassresources() on some BSD OS to control the
  28   resources used in pipe deliveries.
