Hi all, we have the following entry for retries in our configure file

# Address or Domain    Error       Retries
# -----------------    -----       -------


*                      *           F,2h,15m; G,16h,2h,1.5; F,8d,8h


So I figure there should be no email in the queue older than 8 days. But
our little cron job which emails me a list of what is in the queue each
night shows the following


  1C0dBQ-00065g-Gd from: <owner-balloon@???> : 17 days.
                balloonlist@???:  SMTP error from
remote mailer after RCPT TO


A quick exim -bp confirms this to be the case, the above is just a
sample there are lots of jobs over 8 days old. Anybody give me a pointer
to what I am doing wrong

A exim -bV gives Exim version 4.41 #1 built 22-Jul-2004 15:52:20

and it is running on latest fedora core 2
