I'm running an exim server on Mac OS X -- it takes mail, runs it through
SpamCheck, and then sends it on to the local OS X mail server, running on
the same server but on a different port.
I'm having an occasional problem with messages being rejected because an
address (mine, specifically) is unroutable. It happens with my and 2 other
e-mail addresses, but not with the other 2 dozen or so.
Most of the time mail delivery is fine, consistent, but sometimes it's not.
Has anyone else had this problem, and can suggest something?
Here's a snip from exim_mainlog, taken this morning and greped for my
username. You'll notice two messages that weren't delivered, one at the top
and one at the bottom; and all the rest were. Both messages were resent
within minutes, and delivered fine:
