Hi all,
I have a problem with retry time error.
At some undefined time, exim begin to bounce every messages directly and
write in mainlog the following line for example:

2002-03-12 13:41:46 16klb8-0002Ri-00 <= xxxxxxx@???
H=(internal.int.ngi.be) [127.0.0.1] P=esmtp S=1409
id=A4C806B83AC1974E8A2AC21267B922D60450BA@???
2002-03-12 13:41:46 16klb8-0002Ri-00 ** outside@??? R=smarthost
T=remote_smtp: retry time not reached for any host after a long failure
period
2002-03-12 13:41:46 16klb8-0002Rk-00 <= <> R=16klb8-0002Ri-00 U=mail P=local
S=2155
2002-03-12 13:41:46 16klb8-0002Ri-00 Error message sent to xxxxxxx@???
2002-03-12 13:41:46 16klb8-0002Ri-00 Completed

But, the mail queue is empty. The retry rules are the default rules.
The only solution that I found was to stop and restart the exim server.
After that, all new messages are put in the mail queue and then I run 'exim
-Rff domain.in.mail.queue'. And only after that the situation was good. But
The server restart to bounce some hours after.

I use exim 3.12

Thanks for any help

Regards
