Hello,
I've just released SpamBlocker version 4.5.2.
This change will alter the default ciphers and relay_hosts from:
to
This will update your SSL/TLS ciphers to be a bit more modern, but will likely bump some older email clients if they don't support them.
Removing the pophosts file from the relay_hosts list will now require all relays through the server to use smtp-auth, and can no longer rely on popb4smtp. This is much better for tracking, so you don't need to cross reference a dovecot login IP with exim delivery to figure out which auth was used.
You can go backwards via the /etc/exim.variables.conf.custom file with the old settings if you need to, but old email clients should be updated, and clients should also enable smtp-auth.
