Though this might not be very clear, i did check my timeout_frozen_ and ignore_bounce_errors_after settings. They are: | ignore_bounce_errors_after = 2h | timeout_frozen_after = 7d But please note that these messages aren't frozen. They keep receiving '4xx Try Again Later' from the remote mailservers, so they should hit the retry rule timeout which is: | * * F,4h,5m; F,16h,30m; F,7d,3h 7d at max. I'm sorry for not indicating that clearly ;) Kind regards, Sander. -- | I doubt, therefore I might be. | 1024D/08CEC94D - 34B3 3314 B146 E13C 70C8 9BDB D463 7E41 08CE C94D -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
