Hi !!

I think I have now discovered what the problem is. The option dns_again_means_nonexist was applying to direct DNS lookups, but not when Exim was using gethostbyname() (or equivalent). Thinking about this, I've decided that in fact it *should* apply in that case because temporary errors from gethostbyname() are almost certainly in fact to be dns problems.

ok, but what about +ignore_unknown ? dns_again_means_nonexist is ok
for a workaround but not for every day use (as i have to detect which
domains have problems and manually add them to that list). It's
+ignore_unknown suposed to make the condition not to defer whith this
kind of errors ? anyway it a lookup that defers could be also treated
as a unknown result ...
