Emails I send to domains like gmail and hotmail, and quite a few others keep
bouncing with errors like this:

1) mydomain.ca doesn't appear to be your actual domain:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ host mydomain.ca
Host mydomain.ca not found: 2(SERVFAIL)

Please do not obfuscate your logs, headers, and quoted bounces when posting to this list.

2) Your log message seems to be in a strange format; I've never seen a message like that that didn't have an exim message id (such as 1Ec0o4-000GrI-DR) after the timestamp. They're also missing the "<=" and "==" status flags. Did you remove the IDs and status flags from your log before posting, or have you changed your log config in exim in some way? Either way, please don't.

3) The log message you gave only tells us that exim eventually gave up trying to deliver the message; it doesn't tell us why it failed to deliver the messages in the first place. Use exigrep to find all the log messages associated with a given message ID, and you should find out why gmail and hotmail are tempfailing your deliveries repeatedly.
