Subject: [exim] Exim 4.60 Release
I have just put Exim release 4.60 on the primary ftp site:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.60.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-4.60.tar.bz2

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release contains a small number of new features and fixes. In addition,
the manual has been brought up-to-date with all the changes since 4.50. The
various forms of the manual are now generated from a DocBook XML source file.
The layout and style has therefore changed from previous editions.

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

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
distribution files are:

5f8e5834c648ac9a62bb8ab6ad2a6227 exim-4.60.tar.gz
eed3c8fc393cf7ccc9c1079b28516128 exim-4.60.tar.bz2

The distribution contains an ASCII copy of the 4.60 manual and other documents.
Other formats of the documentation are also available:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/exim-html-4.60.tar.gz

The .bz2 versions of these tarbundles are also available.

The HTML documentation contains the FAQ and configuration samples. These are
also available separately in HTML or txt format from the ftp site:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/FAQ-html.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/exim4/FAQ.txt.gz

The ChangeLog for this, and several previous releases, is included in the
distribution. Individual change log files are also available on the ftp site,
the current one being:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/ChangeLogs/ChangeLog-4.60
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/ChangeLogs/ChangeLog-4.60.gz

Documentation for new features that have not yet been included in the manual is
available in the NewStuff file in the distribution. Individual NewStuff files
are also available on the ftp site, the current one being:

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/ChangeLogs/NewStuff-4.60
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/ChangeLogs/NewStuff-4.60.gz

Enjoy.
