Aihe: [exim] exim fails to connect to smarthost
I use exim to relay mail (from a dialup box) via 'smtp.gmail.com' (resolves to 'gmail-smtp.l.google.com') as a smarthost. I have '*:user@???:passwd' in 'passwd.client', and 'port = 587' in 'exim_config_remote_smtp_smarthost'. This configuration has worked for me for a while, but has "suddenly" (I may have done something, but I can't think what) begun to consistently fail, with messages such these:

1GG8B8-0001Nd-Cf gmail-smtp.l.google.com [64.233.185.109] Connection refused
1GG8B8-0001Nd-Cf gmail-smtp.l.google.com [64.233.185.111] Connection refused
1GG8B8-0001Nd-Cf == xxxx@??? R=smarthost T=remote_smtp_smarthost defer (111): Connection refused

The problem isn't with the gmail servers; I use these same settings with the MTA built into sylpheed and it's still working fine.
