The book will never be up-to-date. In fact, it is already out of date,
though I am attempting to include the more important 3.20 changes in it.
It is also not complete. I am not including some of the very special,
rarely required features such as translate_ip_address. What I see the
book as being is an introduction and tutorial to the overall way Exim
works, including the main features, but not trying to be a replacement
for the reference manual.

The book will be "3.16 with some 3.20 features", so a list of changes is
already available by reading the 3.20 ChangeLogs onwards.
