Then upgrading may well solve your problem. For example the
Changelog for exim-4.44 includes:
32. Exim crashed if a remote delivery caused a very long error message to be
recorded - for instance if somebody sent an entire SpamAssassin report back
as a large number of 550 error lines. This bug was coincidentally fixed by
increasing the size of one of Exim's internal buffers (big_buffer) that
happened as part of the Exiscan merge. However, to be on the safe side, I
have made the code more robust (and fixed the comments that describe what
is going on).
