Subject: [Exim] Exim-3.35 log output
Hello Exim users,


I beg to be excused if this question offends anyone. I am just wondering
if someone else has seen this. I installed Exim-3.35 and _never_ made even
a single change to my config file. I know why this appears in the logs but
it's something that I _never_ used to see much of with Exim-3.3[3/4]:

This is by no chance limited to these particluar hosts - there are so many of them.
And it's not that I'm trying to say things are perfect on the Internet either ;)

Did I miss something in the change log of is something failing at my end? I doubt that but
I still feel there is something that is just not right, no??


Thanks for advising.
