Was that the problem that was supposed to be fixed by this change in 4.64?
PH/36 After a 4xx response to a RCPT error, that address was delayed (in queue
runs only) independently of the message's sender address. This meant
that, if the 4xx error was in fact related to the sender, a different
message to the same recipient with a different sender could confuse
things. In particualar, this can happen when sending to a greylisting
server, but other circumstances could also provoke similar problems.
I have changed the default so that the retry time for these errors is now
based a combination of the sender and recipient addresses. This change
can be overridden by setting address_retry_include_sender=false in the
smtp transport.
