For instance, "exim -n -bP pid_file_path" should just emit a pathname
followed by a newline, and no other text.
+ 3. When built with SUPPORT_TLS and USE_GNUTLS, the SMTP transport driver now
+ has a "tls_dh_min_bits" option, to set the minimum acceptable number of
+ bits in the Diffie-Hellman prime offered by a server (in DH ciphersuites)
+ acceptable for security. (Option accepted but ignored if using OpenSSL).
+ Defaults to 1024, the old value. May be lowered only to 512, or raised as
+ far as you like. Raising this may hinder TLS interoperability with other
+ sites and is not currently recommended. Lowering this will permit you to
+ establish a TLS session which is not as secure as you might like.
+
+ Unless you really know what you are doing, leave it alone.
+
+ 4. If not built with DISABLE_DNSSEC, Exim now has the main option
+ dns_use_dnssec; if set to 1 then Exim will initialise the resolver library
+ to send the DO flag to your recursive resolver. If you have a recursive
+ resolver, which can set the Authenticated Data (AD) flag in results, Exim
+ can now detect this.
+
+ Current status: work-in-progress; $sender_host_dnssec variable added.
+
+ 5. DSCP support for outbound connections: on a transport using the smtp driver,
+ set "dscp = ef", for instance, to cause the connections to have the relevant
+ DSCP (IPv4 TOS or IPv6 TCLASS) value in the header.
+
+ Similarly for inbound connections, there is a new control modifier, dscp,
+ so "warn control = dscp/ef" in the connect ACL, or after authentication.
+
+ Supported values depend upon system libraries. "exim -bI:dscp" to list the
+ ones Exim knows of. You can also set a raw number 0..0x3F.
+
+ 6. The -G command-line flag is no longer ignored; it is now equivalent to an
+ ACL setting "control = suppress_local_fixups". The -L command-line flag
+ is now accepted and forces use of syslog, with the provided tag as the
+ process name. A few other flags used by Sendmail are now accepted and
+ ignored.
