Subject: [exim] Exim 4.52 released
I have just put Exim release 4.52 on the primary ftp site:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.52.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.52.tar.bz2

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release contains some new features and a number of bug fixes.

As usual, all changes are in the doc/ChangeLog. See also the README.UPDATING
file for changes that might impact on some installations.

The manual has NOT been updated for this release. However, the versions of
spec.txt and filter.txt and the exim.8 man page that are included in the doc
directory have been generated via the new mechanism that uses DocBook XML as an
intermediate standard format. The contents of these files should be unchanged
from 4.50 and 4.51, but the layout and formatting is different. Please report
any typos or formatting problems.

The primary ftp server is in Cambridge, England. There is a list of mirrors in:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/Mirrors

The distribution files are signed with Philip Hazel's GPG key, which is
available on the ftp site and on a number of keyservers. The signature files
are in the same directory as the tarbundles. The MD5 hash codes for the

also available separately in HTML or txt format from the ftp site:
