Subject: [EXIM] dns retrans/retries

Being such a clever bunt, and noticing that netscape frequently
was successful on the second attempt to find a host, when the first
was unsuccessful, I decided to try
dns_retrans = 30
dns_retrys = 2

Thinking that with 30 seconds, it would have time to get cached
somewhere in between.

Alas and alack on hpux I get a
1998-01-28 14:24:02 Exim configuration error
invalid time value for dns_retrans in line 17

in the panic log.
