Maybe -- although I believe I did change the retry rules _before_ the
original expiry time was reached, because we _knew_ the primary MX was
going to be absent for a few more days. So the 'expired' bit shouldn't
have been set, should it? But then we lost all the mail anyway :)

There exists a strong possibility that I screwed up the format of the
retry rules though, so maybe your above hypothesis is correct. I think I
put the rule for this domain _after_ the '*' rule, as follows:

*@*infradead.org       *           F,2h,15m; F,24h,1h; F,30d,4h
*                      *           F,2h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,8h
cardolan.com           *           F,2h,15m; F,24h,1h; F,30d,4h
