171 * debian/tests/control: Add missing python test dependency, as

175 * 4.82 deprecated $tls_bits, $tls_certificate_verified, $tls_cipher,
176 $tls_peerdn, $tls_sni and introduced tls_in_*/tls_out_* variants of these
177 variables which describe the respective status of the current incoming or
178 outgoing TLS connection. The rationale for this is that a single exim
179 process can now use both an incoming (message reception) and outgoing
180 TLS connection (callout or cutthrough delivery) concurrently. With this
181 change the "old" variables were mapped to tls_in_*, i.e. they expand to
182 empty values on outgoing connections. (This is not yet documented.)
183 Outgoing tls-connections can therefore not be detected by nonempty
184 $tls_cipher anymore. exim4-config << 4.82 used this mechanism to prevent
185 sending of plaintext AUTH information on unencrypted connections. Force a
186 lockstep upgrade of exim4-config by bumping the version of exim4-base's
187 dependency on exim4-config to >= 4.82.

979 served a purpose in earlier releases with free-form replacements but is

1903 * Make update-exim4.conf man page also update-exim4.conf.conf man page.
1904 * Fix SPF error message when $sender_address_domain is undefined (i.e. sender
1906 * Change debian/rules documentation for daemon-custom build.
1907 Thanks to Guido Hennecke. Closes: #386135
1908 * Rotate paniclog by size, not daily, to avoid rotating away
1909 messages after complaining from the daily cron job.
1910 Thanks to Dirk Meyer.
1911 * Update Slovak translation.
1912 Thanks to Peter Mann.
1913 * Add Wolof translation.
1914 Thanks to M Mamoune Mbacke
1915 * Add a paragraph explaning the gnutls-bin suggestion to ease DH
1916 parameter generation in case of entropy starvation.
1917 Thanks to Andi Barth and Florian Weimer.
1918 * Since a new version of sysvinit upload will move /var/run/ to a tmpfs
1919 directories under /var/run/ and their permissions are not persistent
1920 anymore but will be lost after a reboot. - Re-generate /var/run/exim4 in
1921 the init script to compensate for this. (am) (closes: #387699)
1922 * update-exim4.conf: Exit with an error if dc_use_split_config is neither
1923 true nor false instead of replacing the configuration with an empty one.
1924 (am) Closes: #386554
1925 * More intelligence for exim4_refresh_gnutls-params:
1926 * If certtool (from gnutls-bin) is unavailable but openssl is installed
1927 use openssl to re-generate DH params. (am)
1928 * Change exim4-base Suggests on gnutls-bin to gnutls-bin|openssl. (am)
1929 * Move invocation and background mechanism to exim4_refresh_gnutls-params.
1930 Script can now be called any time from the command line or any
1932 * Only regenerate dh params if tls_advertise_hosts is non empty.
1933 According to Florian Weimer, DH params are only needed for
1934 incoming TLS connections.
1935 * Thanks, Yuri D'Elia. This addresses #387448
1936 * Improve entropy and gnutls-params docs.
1938 * Invoke exim4_refresh_gnutls-params unconditionally.
1939 * Send out e-mail alert if gnutls-params is older than 14 days.
1940 * rename config varables to E4BCD_, source /etc/default/exim4
1941 * introduce a E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE variable containing a regexp.
1942 Paniclog is negatively filtered against that regexp and paniclog
1943 warning is only sent out if unfiltered lines remain. This is to allow
1944 work around http://www.exim.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92
1945 * Prepare hosts_avoid_tls statement on SMTP transports
1946 * Macroize log_selector, remove +tls_cipher from examples (it is on
1947 by default) and always set tls_peerdn (we use TLS by default for
1948 outgoing connections). Make it easier to enable debug logging.
1949 * Mention in the comments of the default RCPT ACL that verification
1950 is likely to have false negatives in smarthost/satellite setups. This
1951 is the easiest way to fix #388460; the "real" fix would be very very
1952 complicated and thus unsuitable for the default configuration.
1955 * Re-Work "misc" section to contain subsection. Fix minor
1957 * Add a section about SELinux to the misc subsection saying that
1958 we currently do not have an SELinux policy but would appreciate
1959 people helping here. This is already bug #387327 and #390179.

2776 exim4 (4.43-3) unstable; urgency=low
2778 * Now that 4.44 is released upload 4.43 to unstable. ;-) Merge experimental
2779 and unstable changelog.
2780 * More lintian overrides. ("X" in eximon4's description has to be capital,
2781 and we take care to only use settitle if it is available.
2782 * make nullmailer setup and the way we use mailname a lot more sensible,
2783 attacking #244095 and #280207:
2784 - mailname is not implicitely made a local domain, instead it is listed
2785 explicitly in dc_other_hostnames, where users can easily remove it
2786 from. (This is basically what postfix does, too.) When upgrading
2787 existing installations mailname is automatically added _once_ to
2788 dc_other_hostnames, on fresh installations mailname is the default
2789 value of dc_other_hostnames. We store the fact that we have added
2790 mailname to dc_other_hostnames in $dc_mailname_in_oh in
2791 update-exim4.conf.conf.
2792 - Make exim work correctly if dc_readhost ("visible, rewritten domain name
2793 for local users") ends up as part of local_domain, which happens if
2794 the same value is chosen for mailname and dc_readhost. This
2795 implemented by new router, hub_user_smarthost. Previously users were
2796 required to use something different (my.invalid.domain) for mailname.
2797 - Special thanks to Christian Perrier for taking care of the
2798 template translation updates.
2799 * We did not substitute the current value into the debconf templates with
2800 db_subst but showed the old ones from the previous debconf run.
2801 * /etc/exim4/email-addresses is ignored now, please use /etc/email-addresses!
2802 * Bosnian (bs.po) translation is complete (Thanks Adis Nezirovic).

3104 allowed: "(char **)(&foo)" where foo is a pointer to unsigned char
3105 (sourcecode: CSS(foo) with foo being a uchar), which results in lots of
3106 "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules".

3191 * Debconf supports masquerading as a different host with rewriting not only
3192 for "satellite" but also for "smarthost" system. (Closes: #229911).
3193 - Introduces another but hopefully last pre-sarge template change.
3194 (This includes final versions of the templates without the dead
3195 references to "satellite" which closes: #229902.)
3196 - Rewrite /this/ stuff at smtp transport time. /etc/email-addresses
3197 rewriting still uses normal rewriting because it always has and because
3198 it is easier to setup.
3199 - This still does not address one basic issue, the misuse of /etc/mailname
3200 for qualifying recipeints because this needs clarification in policy
3201 _and_ changing MUAs to not do this. Therefore I declare this post-sarge.

3205 - Change 4.31/55 was buggy and broke sender address rewriting and caching.

3240 updating the translation.
3241 * On fresh installations smarthost profile only listens on loopback per

3522 exim4 (4.24-1) unstable; urgency=low
3524 * New upstream version
3525 - 55_fixesfrom-4.23.dpatch is not needed anymore.
3526 - most interesting new feature: $acl_xx are now saved with the
3527 message, and can be accessed later in routers, transports, and filters.
3528 - Cannot run deliveries as root anymore. If you don't redirect mail for
3529 root via /etc/aliases or other means to a nonpriviledged account the
3530 mail will be delivered to /var/mail/mail with permissions 0600 and owner
3531 mail:mail. Change to local_user router to keep it from trying to route
3533 * debconf for exim4-config pointed to /u/s/d/e/README.Debian but the
3534 file is available as README.Debian.gz (Closes: #211934)
3535 * exim(8) manpage provides correct NAME section for mailq/runq/... to
3536 generate corresponding whatis/apropos info (Thanks to Dan Jacobson
3537 <jidanni@jidanni.org> for mentioning lexgrog(1))
3538 * polish and crosslink documentation about SMTP AUTH in config-files,
3539 documentation and debconf templates. (Closes: #202920)
3540 * Ship README.SIEVE (Thanks to Ross Boylan)
3541 * Sync some debconf templates against the respective ones in postfix
3542 2.0.16, to limit the work of translators.
3543 * update-exim4defaults/init-script: Add a new value fuer QUEUERUNNER,
3544 "ppp". - Don't run queue by daemon but still run it from
3545 /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/exim4. (Dan Jacobson pointed out that this was very
3546 akward to accomplish with old setup.) update-exim4defaults now exits with
3547 an error if the argument for --queuerunner is invalid.
3548 * Enable gettext-style localisation of debconf templates with
3549 compatibility code for woody
3550 * Add German debconf-translation. (Some strings were copied from Martin A.
3551 Godischs translation of postfix's templates).

3558 some ACL code, exiscan needs in depth checking and not just applying the
3560 * exim4-config conflicts with bash (<< 2.05), because it cannot handle
3561 aliases in functions. This does not necessarily fix dist-upgrades
3562 from potato to sarge because debconf-config might happen before the
3563 new bash is installed but will keep people running potato from
3564 trying to install exim4-config. (Closes: #209720)
3565 * sanitize /usr/sbin/exim4's permissions, building with 007 umask
3566 could have installed it -rws--x--x
3567 * evaluation -oP option for specifying pid-file is broken in 4.22, use fix
3568 from 4.23 (Closes: #210847)
3569 * "warn log_message blah" in DATA acl triggered dumping of full headers
3570 to reject.log, although the message was not rejected by this acl
3571 statement. Take fix from 4.23. (Closes: #208782)
3572 * On cross-upgrades from exim3 unfold lines continued with a backslash
3573 in the old exim3 configuration before trying to parse it to preanswer the
3574 debconf-questions. (Closes: #210404) First instance of using perl in our

3957 defaults) in the second-run overwrote the answers given by the user.

4389 * /var/log/exim/ --> /var/log/exim4/
4390 * /var/run/exim/ --> /var/run/exim4/
4391 * /etc/init.d/exim --> /etc/init.d/exim4
4392 * Use files named after the real package (exim4-base instead of) exim for
4393 cron and logrotate. - use dh_installlogrotate and dh_installcron
4394 * Don't install exim.8 manpages in daemon packages - symlink is enough, ship
4395 real manpage in base-package. - use dh_installman.
4396 * Get rid of m4-magic - without the alternatives there is no need.

4400 exim4 (4.10-0.srh20.1) unstable; urgency=low
4402 * rename package, replace dependencies.
4404 - binary exim(-something) --> exim4-something
4405 - Remove Provides: exim - does not make sense anymore, dselect/apt
4406 would take the real exim instead of the provided one.
4407 - Revamp Dependencies and contents
4408 * exim4-base provides/confl/repl: mta and depends on one of *our*
4410 * each of the flavours only contains only /usr/sbin/exim4 and a manpagelink
4411 exim4--->exim - there is no need to provides/confl/repl: mta, because
4412 we ship no common file with the same name as in the original
4414 - drop alternatives.
4415 - install configuration example to /usr/share/doc/exim4-doc/examples

4421 * exim-base.config fixes during testing-- need to run debconf subs in a
4422 list context to get their numeric return code.
4423 * enqueue_question(): $code == 0 is ok too
4424 * main: call fetch_default() not find_default() [when did I last test this?]
4425 * install debconf_eximconfig (!!!!!!)

4449 exim (4.10-0.srh16) unstable; urgency=low
4451 * Put --exec $DAEMON back on the start-stop-daemon --stop calls, since
4452 start-stop-daemon complains about the process not being found after it
4453 just killed it. (Due to Exim not removing its own pid file?)
4454 * Point slave alternatives at .gz versions of manpages

4460 * Fix "update-alternatives --remove" invocation.
4461 * Remove alternatives AFTER stopping daemon.
4462 * Use logrotate to cycle logs.
4463 * Manually install logrotate/cron stuff, to call it "exim" instead of "exim-base".
4464 * Install upstream exim.8 manpage, and slave alternatives.

4468 exim (4.10-0.srh14) unstable; urgency=low
4470 * dh_installinit: pass --noscripts, put the script invocation etc. in
4471 ourselves. This is still pretty nasty, but ensures that the deamons
4472 are stopped/started themselves, not by exim-base.
4473 * Also, pass --init-script=exim to use /etc/init.d/exim, not
4474 /etc/init.d/exim-base.
4475 * Fix some inconsistencies in the postsinst related to the above that
4477 * Remove the --exec option when stopping the daemon in the init script,
4478 so that we still stop the daemon if the symlink changed to point to a
4479 different version (hacky).

4489 exim (4.10-0.srh12) unstable; urgency=low
4491 * The postinsts were totally broken, doing everything off the "install"
4492 target, and nothing off "configure". Since they're all pracitcally the
4493 same, they are now generated from daemon-postinst.m4.
4494 * Fix invocations of dpkg-statoverride (sysuser??)
4495 * Added slave alternatives for mailq, sendmail etc.
4496 * Removed daemon packages conflicting with mail-transport-agent,
4497 although this isn't good-- the deamon packages don't conflict with
4498 each other (they use alternatives to arrange themselves), but do
4499 conflict with other MTAs that install
4500 /usr/lib/sendmail|/usr/sbin/sendmail links. Urnf.
4501 * Similar generation system for prerms as postinsts

4512 exim (4.10-0.srh10) unstable; urgency=low
4514 * Patch src/expand.c with HMAC support
4515 * Rename exim-daemon-default package to just "exim", so upgrading works
4516 better, and exim isn't made into a pure virtual package while other
4517 packages depend on it. Moreover, mail-transport-agent is provided by
4518 each of the daemon packages, not exim-base, since having exim-base
4519 alone is not sufficient to have an MTA.
4520 * Each exim daemon package depends on exim-base, not exim.

4527 * Split package into:
4528 - exim-base: This package contains all utility programs and
4529 documentation in plain text format.
4530 - exim-daemon-$FOO: (Currently for FOO in light, default, heavy,
4531 perl): Conain only the exim daemon in different configurations
4532 - exim-doc-info: Contains exim documentation in Info format.
4533 - eximon: The X11 monitor for Exim

4539 * exim.c: Show the OpenSSL version number if TLS compiled in and the tls
4540 debug selector enabled.
4541 * exim.postinst et al: Keep the alternatives configured between upgrades
4542 (naughty) since exim-light will fail to start if exim-heavy keywords
4543 are in the config file

4549 * tls.c: Some debug output changes to verify_callback()
4550 * debconf_eximconfig: add more escaping when writing acl_check_rcpt
4551 * tls.c and others: ${tls_peercn} now expands to the CN part of the
4552 peer's certificate subject when using TLS.
4553 * transports/smtp.c and others: Added tls_verify_hostname option to
4554 verify the hostname we connected to against the CN/subjectAltName
4555 of the peer certificate.

4561 * exim-heavy.postinst: had duplicate sendmail alternative, removed. Had
4562 a priority the same as exim-light too... increased.
4563 * Replace LOOKUP_CDB=yes in exim-light configuration, since it was in
4564 the Exim 3 package and doesn't bring in any dependencies.
4565 * exim.postinst: delete files from /var/spool/exim/db if they cannot be
4566 read by exim_dumpdb (some DB compatibility lossage)

4572 * My stab at an Exim 4 package. Features include:
4573 * An exim-heavy package that contains an Exim binary with LDAP,
4574 MySQL, PostgreSQL etc. in, so that the main Exim package's
4575 dependencies are kept thin but users can easily get hold of
4576 the extra lookup types.
4577 * Debconf-based configuration, although it has priority=high
4578 questions, so not completely noninteractive yet, and not
4579 all features of eximconfig have been ported/checked
4580 * Automated conversion of Exim 3 configuration files
4581 (using PH's convert4r4)

4597 * debian/postinst: "noninteractive" in correct case (Closes: #134379)
4598 * debian/init.d: Use -n option for echo (from patch in #133288)
4599 * debian/exim_lock.8: Manpage for exim_lock - thanks Nick Philips
