Thanks for your interest in the bug, Simon.

After discussing with the team, we reached the conclusion that this
request is too broad and unspecific to be completed, especially
considering it affects an old Ubuntu release.  Given that it involves
quite a number of patches to be backported (around 122, as per Bryce's
comment), it is just no feasible to do that and introduce the risk of a
potential regression for all of the exim4 users in Ubuntu.

If you would like a specific failure or limitation to be addressed, we
would appreciate if you could provide instructions on how to reproduce
it.  We would then be able to assess the possibility of doing an SRU to
address this very specific issue, which is something much easier to
justify for Xenial.

If this is a really important problem for you, and if you cannot afford
upgrading to a more recent Ubuntu release (where the problem has been
fixed), then it may be possible to provide you a PPA with the fixes
applied.

Thanks.
