P-C FAQ (Q#7) seems to indicate that when/if http fails it will be automatically (no user action required) sent through e-mail: http://popcon.debian.org/FAQ > 3.

Looks like a successful negotiation. To check it your Exim's smarthost is working fine, I would try to send an e-mail to an external e-mail address (one that you can check) and see what happens. > 5.

I'd say it was but checking if Exim is able to deliver to an external e- mail address will neither not hurt :-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
