Change log file for Exim from version 4.21

"retry timeout exceeded" was returned. Now it returns the full error as

New Features in Exim
--------------------
@@ -105,6 +105,19 @@ PH/15 The smtp transport has a new option called authenticated_sender_force.
PH/16 The expansion ${time_eval:<string>} converts an Exim time string such as
2d4h1m into a number of seconds.
+PH/17 The ACL modifier control=allow_auth_unadvertised can be used to permit a
+ client host to use the SMTP AUTH command even when it has not been
+ advertised in response to EHLO. Furthermore, because there are apparently
+ some really broken clients that do this, Exim will even accept AUTH after
+ HELO when this control is set. It should only be used if you really need
+ it, and you should limit its use to those broken hosts that do not work
+ without it. For example:
+
+ warn hosts = 192.168.34.25
+ control = allow_auth_unadvertised
+
+ This control is permitted only in the connection and HELO ACLs.
