Hi guys, I have a strange problem and need a hint in the right direction. Sorry for obfuscation of the addresses, should do no harm though:
2007-05-29 12:42:43 1Hsz9w-0006Ni-Nn SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: host smtpsp1.test.de [130.83.44.80]: 451 4.7.1 Greylisting in progress, please come back later 2007-05-29 12:42:44 1Hsz9w-0006Ni-Nn == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=dns_from_internal T=remote_smtp defer (-44): SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: host smtpsp2.test.de [130.83.44.81]: 451 4.7.1 Greylisting in progress, please come back later 2007-05-29 12:42:44 1Hsz9w-0006Ni-Nn ** [EMAIL PROTECTED]: retry timeout exceeded 2007-05-29 12:42:44 1HszA4-0006OZ-2I <= <> R=1Hsz9w-0006Ni-Nn U=mailnull P=local S=4923 from <> for [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-05-29 12:42:44 1Hsz9w-0006Ni-Nn Completed As you can see the recipient MXs are using greylisting. So far so good. What I do not understand is that Exim after two tries decides "retry timeout exceeded" and sends a NDR immediatly? The working retry rule is this: exim -C /usr/local/etc/exim/configure.out -brt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Retry rule: * * F,2h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,6h; So this should try a lot longer. What am I missing?
