I think all it means is that message is trying to be delivered, and is
usually no problem. I get them all the time (I have a queuerunner
going every fifteen seconds while I'm online....)
As an aside, I'd be interested in a way to find out if a message is
locked before kicking it with -M, there seems to be no associated
.lock file or anything. The presence of a -J file sometimes helps, but
not for messages with only one recipient. I assume Exim handles file
locking internally, or something, rather than by lock files?
