And the other conditions to trigger that bug are the same?
exim_dumpdb <spool-dir> wait-<transport>
shows message ids, waiting for the remote host. The host is reachable
already and after sending the first message down to that host, Exim
crashes?
Correct. This is happening when a system sends many messages to an
email-to-SMS gateway, so many destination addresses at the same host. They
all go through, but some crash after delivery and end up frozen on the
queue. If I thaw them and run the queue, it cleans up without attempting
another delivery..
From mailq:
41m 878 1ZSOSe-0002UV-U7 <[email protected]> *** frozen ***
D [email protected]
From exim_dumpdb:
mail.txt.bell.ca 1ZSOSe-0002Ul-VJ 1ZSOSe-0002UU-VP 1ZSOSe-0002Um-Ud

The dumpdb line shows the destination host, and various message ids, but not
the one that is frozen.. ??
Yes, the message ids shown are normally IDs of messages waiting for that
host. Do you run lots of queue runners in parallel?
Well, all those message ids where no longer in the queue itself. mailq
only showed the one message, as delivered but frozen. That list was also
generated about 45 minutes after the message was actually sent through.
I do not run queue runners in parallel.
