70                 setting the extended bitmask accordingly
71                *) use SUPPORT_DSN_LEGACY=yes in Makefile to be able to read
72                   the legacy format of older patches until all messages are out of queue.
73              *) change "dsn" boolean toggle to "dsn_advertise_hosts" to
74                 be able to select who actually can use the extension

87                  *) bounce_return_message is ignored (required by RFC)
88                  *) in case RET= is defined we honor these values
89                     otherwise bounce_return_body is honored.

103
104              improvements:
105                *) do not truncated MIME messages
106                  *) if bounce_return_size_limit is smaller then the actual message
107                     only the header is returned
108                *) if bounce_return_body or bounce_return_size_limit prevents Exim
109                   from returning the requested (RET=FULL) body this fact is added
110                   as X-Exim-DSN-Information Header
111                  *) this also means that all of the last three parts of the "failure"

113
114                *) dsn_process switch removed

117                *) dsn_lasthop switch added for routers
118                  *) if dsn_lasthop is set by a router it is handled as relaying to a
119                     non DSN aware relay. success mails are sent if Exim successfully
120                     delivers the message.
121                *) redirect routers always "act" as if dsn_lasthop is set
122
123                *) address_item.dsn_aware changed from uschar to int for easier handling.
124
12502-May-2014 : fixes:
126                *) Reporting-MTA: use smtp_active_hostname instead of qualify_domain from
127                   original patch.
