Thanks John for your input, I am looking for failed messages sent from
two of our domains( as we have many)
Sender is not important, nor is the recipient....however, I do need to
know the recipient for logging purposes.

"Undeliverable" is not a concept exipick understands, it only can test
things that are present in an exim message's queue file. So, can you
identify the messages using that information somehow? Do you only want
messges from a certain sender? To a certain recipient? Older than a
certain age? Perhaps only messages that have had at least one delivery
attempt? Perhaps messages that are frozen? You'll need to figure out
yourself how to identify the messages you need.

You will get better results by asking them on exim-users@??? which
has a much deeper pool of knowledge on exim in general and which I also
read. Copying the list with this response.
