Why? The *only* cause of a recipient error is 4xx (or a timeout after RCPT). What you are suggesting amounts to abolishing this error, and anyway, it really is an error that is related to the recipient, not to the message in general. > Alternatively, an option not to update the retry > time if one is already set for the recipient? That doesn't sound like a good idea. Consider the non-greylisting case. Once that retry time had passed, Exim would start trying every message that contained that recipient in every queue run. > If a queue run always processes messages oldest-first, It doesn't (by default). -- Philip Hazel University of Cambridge Computing Service Get the Exim 4 book: http://www.uit.co.uk/exim-book -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
