For future convenience in dealing with claims of delivery problems, you
might want to turn on the smtp_confirmation log selector (see the
log_selector option...there are other things you might want to tweak as
well. Also see

45.15. Reducing or increasing what is logged
(that's the number in the Exim 4.40 spec) for the available selectors.

The +smtp_confirmation selector copies the content of the receiving server's
250 response at the end of the SMTP dialog into the log as a C="blah" item
in the Exim log entry. Many servers include the message id they have
assigned to the message (not all do).
