Because they're rather bounce it as undeliverable to

Is it any more work than to clean out those messages from your postmaster
mailbox? At least exim gives you a chance to find and fix the underlying
problem so that the frozen message can actually be delivered. That, in my
mind, is a decided improvement over sendmail's way of doing things.

I don't use eximon, but it sounds like it may be useful to so something
