--- Comment #18 from Resellerdesktop Admins <customercare@???> ---
you know 4.97.x is now used on production servers, which now all fail to
receive big emails, which worked with 4.96.x . As prce2 did not change,
something else must have.

This is by far no medium bug, this is a critical one from my pov, as it breaks
production systems, reliable running ones with 4.96 .

yes: a 2GB malloc is false by itself
yes: it may be caused by pcre2
no: we can't wait for pcre2 to fix this and hope the entire distro base relying
on pcre2 gets rebased in a few days. You need to prevent it from happening now
and sort it our with pcre2 devs later.

even if 4.96. is the most used version atm, 4.97 gets more and more used by the
minute, so the criticalness is constantly increasing. I don't need to remind
you, how important exim has become. If people do not get reasonable sized mails
any more, it will hurt the eco system a lot. I really think about downgrading
our cluster to 4.96 , no matter what 4.97.1 fixed.
