Do you use AV or spam scanning after DATA? If yes, the cause may be a
post-data timeout on the sending host. Exim may then send his 220 to a
dead channel and queue the message, while the sending host has timed out
the SMTP session and will retry sending the message later.
That would explain the randomness. It typically only happens when the
machine is well-loaded.
