New Features in Exim

test from the snapshots or the CVS before the documentation is updated. Once
the documentation is updated, this file is reduced to a short list.

+Version 4.70 / 4.71
+-------------------
1. Native DKIM support without an external library.
2. Experimental DCC support via dccifd (contributed by Wolfgang Breyha).
+ 3. There is now a bool{} expansion condition which maps certain strings to
+ true/false condition values (most likely of use in conjuction with the
+ and{} expansion operator).
+
+ 4. The $spam_score, $spam_bar and $spam_report variables are now available
+ at delivery time.
+
+ 5. exim -bP now supports "macros", "macro_list" or "macro MACRO_NAME" as
+ options, provided that Exim is invoked by an admin_user.
+
+ 6. There is a new option gnutls_compat_mode, when linked against GnuTLS,
+ which increases compatibility with older clients at the cost of decreased
+ security. Don't set this unless you need to support such clients.
+
+ 7. There is a new expansion operator, ${randint:...} which will produce a
+ "random" number less than the supplied integer. This randomness is
+ not guaranteed to be cryptographically strong, but depending upon how
+ Exim was built may be better than the most naive schemes.
+
+ 8. Exim now explicitly ensures that SHA256 is available when linked against
+ OpenSSL.
+
+ 9. The transport_filter_timeout option now applies to SMTP transports too.
