That is a "defer" line, meaning Exim will try again later.

Please shows us *all* the *exact* log lines that match 1Es6rr-000H1A-Fo,
preferably not obfuscated (you can obfuscate the local parts if you
must, but try to keep them distinguishable so we can see which is which)
and then we can tell you exactly what happened to the message from the
sending end. The first such line should be a <= line and the last one
should be "Completed".

If you read the relevant chapter on log lines in the manual, it will
tell you that => and -> lines are deliveries for those recipients,
whereas == is a defer that means Exim will try later.
