Temat: [exim] retry timeout exceeded - config problem?
Here is my situation.

Using exim 4.34 built from freebsd-ports to do antivirus/antispam scanning (via
MailScanner) and sending all scanned mail to back-end mailhub via smart_route
(manualroute).

Anyway, this all works great when the mailhub that the mail is routed to is up
and working. However, if that machine refuses connections on port 25 for
whatever reason (or is just down completely), messages are not being queued up
for the proper amount of time and are timing out immediately.

My retry config (from configure_outgoing):

# Domain               Error       Retries
# ------               -----       -------


*                       *           F,2d,1s; F,4d,6h


I call exim two ways:

/usr/local/sbin/exim -C /usr/local/etc/exim/configure_incoming -bd (exim-4.34-0)

(for incoming messages)

and:

/usr/local/sbin/exim -C /usr/local/etc/exim/configure_outgoing -qff (exim-4.34-0)

(to process the queue)

Example from the mainlog:

Any advice would be appreciated.
