As it turns out, these messages eventually *do* leave the queue. But i still don't understand why they stay on queue for about twice the time specified by the retry rules. F.e. with a new message on the queue: | 11d 4.7K 1IJADT-0002Ak-N1 <> | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Doing this: | % exim4 -v -v -M 1IJADT-0002Ak-N1 Results in: | delivering 1IJADT-0002Ak-N1 | Connecting to mx.bol.com.br [200.221.29.128]:25 from 10.0.25.1 ... connected | LOG: MAIN | Remote host mx.bol.com.br [200.221.29.128] closed connection in | response to initial connection | LOG: MAIN | == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp defer (-18): Remote | host mx.bol.com.br [200.221.29.128] closed connection in response to | initial connection | LOG: MAIN | ** [EMAIL PROTECTED]: retry timeout exceeded | LOG: MAIN | [EMAIL PROTECTED]: error ignored | LOG: MAIN | Completed And the message is gone. I'd really like to know a way to make these messages disappear at the specified maximum time on queue, instead of what seems to be twice as long. Any hints?
