* Update to exim-4.24 (bugfix release).
* Wishlist patch for "eqi" incorporated.
* Mark exim-{ldap2,mysql,postgresql,} as conflicting.
* Substitute PORTREVISION for build number so that the version string
hints at which version of the port the binary comes from.
* Clean up POST-INSTALL-NOTES.
* Install example scripts, especially upgrade converters, now that exim-old
has been retired.
* Enable DNSDB-style lookup support by default; it can be disabled with
WITHOUT_DNSDB.
* Simplify LDAP support, using various versions of OpenLDAP only.
The old WITH_OPENLDAP[0-9][0-9] options are now invalid; use
WITH_OPENLDAP and/or WITH_OPENLDAP_VER instead.
* Retired exim-ldap port; OpenLDAP 1.2 is ancient.
* Allow the operator to specify preferred MySql version with
WITH_MYSQL_VER.
* Allow the operator to specify preferred Berkeley DB version with
WITH_BDB_VER; the old DB_LIB_VERSION option is now invalid.
* Respect bsd.ports.mk defaults of MySQL 4.0 and OpenLDAP 2.1.
* Allow the operator to specify default charset for header conversions,
with WITH_DEFAULT_CHARSET.
* Limit configure files to ${PREFIX}/etc/exim by default for security
reasons; the operator may override this behaviour with
WITHOUT_ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX.
!!!WARNING!!!
Some of these changes may cause trouble for folks who have a bunch of
exim port tweaks in make.conf and pkgtools.conf. The ALT_CONFIG_PREFIX
change may break existing deployments.

To use Exim instead of sendmail on startup:
|
|
|
|
*) Clear the sendmail queue and stop the sendmail daemon.
|
|
*) Adjust mailer.conf(5) as appropriate.
|
|
*) Set the 'sendmail_enable' rc.conf(5) variable to 'NONE'.
|
|
*) Set the 'daily_status_include_submit_mailq' and
|
|
'daily_clean_hoststat_enable' periodic.conf(5)
|
|
variables to 'NO'.
|
|
*) Set the 'exim_enable' rc.conf(5) variable to 'YES'.
|
|
*) Start exim with '%%RC_DIR%%/exim%%RC_SUFX%% start'.

You may also want to configure newsyslog(8) to rotate Exim log files:
|
|
|
|
/var/log/exim/mainlog mailnull:mail 640 7 * @T00 ZN
|
|
/var/log/exim/rejectlog mailnull:mail 640 7 * @T00 ZN

NOTE TO OPERATORS UPGRADING FROM exim-3.xx:
|
|
|
|
There was a big reworking of the way mail routing works for release
|
|
4.00. Previously used "directors" were abolished, and all routing is
|
|
now done by routers. Policy controls for incoming mail are now done by
|
|
Access Control Lists instead of separate options. All this means that
|
|
pre-4.00 configuration files have to be massively converted. If you
|
|
are coming from a 3.xx release, please read the document in the file
|
|
%%DOCSDIR%%/Exim4.upgrade, and allow some time to complete
|
|
the upgrade.
|
|
|
|
Additional scripts to help upgrading are installed in:
