Please create DNS records instead of CNAME:

lists.exim.org. 300 IN A 37.120.190.30
Or accept emails to lists sent to .
Else some people trying to post to lists get "unknown user"
because sendmail "canonicalises" hostnames.

I tried to upgrade to Exim 4.96 using recently updated FreeBSD port,
but got errors in paniclog:

Also, you should use $rh_from: instead of $h_from:,
same as with ${address and ${addresses .

FreeBSD port of openssl 1.1.1 had an update yesterday, it says:
Final version of OpenSSL 1.1.1, this port will upgrade to
3.0 (LTS) with a next commit.
Does somebody use Exim with openssl 3 under FreeBSD already?
Perhaps Exim will need to be recompiled?

Must be : instead or ; before mxh.

One of ways:
pkg install gdb
Add to /etc/make.conf :
.if ${.CURDIR} == ${PORTSDIR}/mail/exim
CFLAGS+= -g -O0 -ggdb
.endif
