           Summary: Failed name server leads to unroutable address error
           Product: Exim
           Version: N/A
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: bug

I think this is a bug. A valid domain where the name servers are unreachable
results in an error "unroutable address" rather than retrying. I ran into this
situation where due to a network routing problem my name servers couldn't reach
the domains name servers and rather than retrying it failed as if the domain
didn't exist.
