What you need to do is force delivery on one of these messages, with
debugging output enabled, and see what's going on (or look in the logs,
but it is probably easier just to force the message through). Try:

exim -d -M 1GqBX7-0004ZP-Cd

to force that particular message ID to be delivered (replace the message
ID with another that's still there if that one has left the queue by
now). If you can't figure out the problem from the output, send it to
the list, so that we can try to help you decipher it.
