Subject: [exim-dev] Randomising retry times?
Hello,

if a few hosts with the same retry rules send large amounts to a host
that was previously down, it may happen that both experience problems with
the restricted number of connections offered by the previously down host.
Retrying later gets the same behaviour. It's not as extreme as it sounds,
but to a certain amount, I do see a wave shape.

How about randomising a part of geometric retry times?
