Note that a setting of rfc1413_query_timeout of 30 seconds was the
default in exim-4.61 and earlier. So an explicit value may not be
present in the configuration file.
The default setting of rfc1413_query_timeout has changed to 5
seconds in exim-4.62. I believe this change was made after some
discussion on this list.
