Subject: [Exim] Multiple mail delivery
If a mail is sent to mixed recipients(local & remote)
and one local delivery failed with 'over disk quota'
exim some times (~one per week)resents every queue run
this mail to some ( not all ) remote recipients.
In the main log is only a hint to the disk quota
problem.
14:45:10 18Nu8P-0006yJ-00 == tyagi@local
<navneet.tyagi@???> R=localuser T=local_delivery defer
(49): Disc quota exceeded: mailbox is full
14:45:10 18Nu8P-0006yJ-00 Process 19223 finished: not found in remote
transport process list
14:45:10 18Nu8P-0006yJ-00 remote delivery process count got out of step

Resending the mail by
/opt/exim/bin/exim -v -M 18Nu8P-0006yJ-00 produces
the following log

/opt/exim/bin/exim   -v -M 18Nu8P-0006yJ-00

The problem occures with exim 4.10 + exiscan 4.10-17 and
exim 4.11 + exiscan 4.11-19 on Solaris 8

Any idea?
