+(337) 29-Jun-05 S Add "defer" to $recipient_verify_failure
This is for when defer_ok was set when verifying recipients. Since this isn't
for a failure, we probably also need "ok" for the non-fail case.

+(338) 14-Jul-05 M Change to Bind 9 API
+
+Exim uses the original API for calling the DNS resolver. There is a newer API
+available, and noises are being made in some OS that compatibility with the old
+API is going to be dropped. Nevertheless, there are sure to be systems about
+for ages that require the use of the old API. Therefore, we will have to
+implement not only an interface to the new API, but a backwards compatibility
+feature. It would be nice if this was automatic.
