Thank you for taking the time to reply, and apologies for my delay in
getting back to this.

I was looking here [0] and saw the last activity still points to the
+fixes branch of November 2020, which is what prompted my question. If
you don't mind, where did you see the included update so I know where
to look the next time.

I also did pkg update yesterday, including exim-postgresql. exim -bV
now shows v4.94.2 which seems to match the patched version from the
Exim mailing list. But not sure how to confirm that either.

Appreciate the help!
