I have this setting (apart from others) in my configure file.
hostlist relay_hosts = +include_unknown : 127.0.0.1 : 62.8.64.0/19 : 212.49.74.0/25
All I want to achieve is:
If DNS lookup fails, accept the mail but queue it for later retry
If host lookup fails, accept mail still, try again later.
I am not sure what other setting causes such error to show up.

I have an unreliable upstream provider here so this is very
important for me to solve and let be.
