It seems simple, but this solution will require that I spent my time
contacting dns administrators and asking them to fix it, when it will be
more simple to just configure exim to retry. The fact is that my users
complain to me because my mail server refuses to send email to EXISTENT
email addresses. If you add the time I had to explain that to my users
and the time I will have to spent to contact the dns administartors, I
will be all the mornign working for that, every day. No sense.

BTW, when I used sendmail I don't have this problem.

Sorry, but I don't want it to fail immediatelly, I want it to retry at
least one time. That's my question, it's possible to do that ? I don't
want to discuss if it's ok for you or not, I just want to know how can
I setup exim to do that.
