FYI, I've now got several hung in the queue, all with the same error message. The server is periodically re-sending them. I'm guessing that they'll drop off eventually.
It looks like these servers exist, at least in a DNS server somewhere, so it can't drop them for 'no server'. But since there's no response, it can't drop them for 'undeliverable'. So it just keeps retrying. I still can't correlate the retry attempts with the server setup, though. > This is the only one with the message "The remote server did > not respond to a connection attempt."
