There has been at least one more recent posting to exim-dev, and I
don't think the server has been down. I haven't a clue why you should
see that; it sounds as if the hints data got corrupted in some way.
If it happens again, one thing to do would be to run exim_dumpdb on
the retry hints data to see what it has got in there.
Yeah, I think it's got to be a problem on my end, not yours, because the
bounce was literally _immediate_, and there was no evidence of any
remote connection in the log for the failed message.
Here's the sesame.csx.cam.ac.uk entry from my retry database:
T:sesame.csx.cam.ac.uk:2001:630:200:8080:20e:cff:fe09:a58a 113 77 No
route to host
01-Jun-2005 09:14:50 13-Jun-2005 14:55:56 13-Jun-2005 20:55:56 *
The very first entry in my exim.conf main section is:
dns_ipv4_lookup = *
so I remain confused. Why is it trying to connect to an ipv6 address
for sesame when I've configured it to only lookup ipv4?
In case you're interested in the entire contents of the retry db dump
(which doesn't look corrupted to my untrained eye), here it is:
