Change log file for Exim from version 4.21

@@ -106,6 +106,16 @@ PH/18 If quota_warn_message contains a From: header, Exim now refrains from
adding the default one. Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the
errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used.
+PH/19 When calculating a retry time, Exim used to measure the "time since
+ failure" by looking at the "first failed" field in the retry record. Now
+ it does not use this if it is later than than the arrival time of the
+ message. Instead it uses the arrival time. This makes for better
+ behaviour in cases where some deliveries succeed, thus re-setting the
+ "first failed" field. An example is a quota failure for a huge message
+ when small messages continue to be delivered. Without this change, the
+ "time since failure" will always be short, possible causing more frequent
+ delivery attempts for the huge message than are intended.
