Change log file for Exim from version 4.21

@@ -134,6 +134,14 @@ PH/19 The functions {pwcheck,saslauthd}_verify_password() are always called
but it didn't always do it. This confused somebody who was copying the
code for some other use. I have removed all the tests.
+PH/20 It was discovered that the GnuTLS code had support for RSA_EXPORT, a
+ feature that was used to support insecure browsers during the U.S. crypto
+ embargo. It requires special client support, and Exim is probably the
+ only MTA that supported it -- and would never use it because real RSA is
+ always available. This code has been removed, because it had the bad
+ effect of slowing Exim down by computing (never used) parameters for the
+ RSA_EXPORT functionality.
