Betreff: [Exim] Exim 4.34 Released
I have just put Exim release 4.34 on the primary ftp site:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.34.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.34.tar.bz2

By doing this, I have broken my usual rule of not releasing software just
before I go away. I have done this because this release contains two important
fixes. I am going to be away from 13-24 May (in Dakar, Senegal), but I will be
reading email for most of the time, as I will be teaching at an Internet
workshop.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release fixes the buffer overflow bug, and also undoes the trouble that
the Received: change caused, but still ends up with the final end of reception
time in the Received: header. There are a couple of other minor changes.

As usual, all changes are in the doc/ChangeLog file and new features are
described in the doc/NewStuff file. See also the README.UPDATING file for
changes that might impact on some installations. The manual has *not* been
updated.
