It was unable to verify paz@???. What the reason for this was,
is unfortunately not present in the log, but it was a temporary failure.
If it is repeatable, the way to track it down is to run

exim -bv paz@???

on the server host that did the rejection, preferably from a process
running as the Exim user, so as to be in precisely the same state as the
SMTP receiver runs in.

Or you can try running exim -bh 209.53.238.7 and submitting the same
SMTP transaction.
