This is configured as explained in my previous email.

My previous email said 3.12.

From your two questions, it appears you didn't receive my entire message.
My previous message has the exim version (3.12) and has details discussing
my usage of ignore_errmsg_errors_after.

Here it is:

Thanks for your response. I am not sure what to check next.

If a message is expired using "ignore_errmsg_errors[_after]" is there a
specific logged message (that corresponds to
"ignore_errmsg_errors[_after]")?

Thanks,
