Bug ID: 1782
Summary: retry time not reached for any host after a long
failure period - but failure is instant
Product: Exim
Version: 4.86
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Queues
Assignee: nigel@???
Reporter: marc@???
CC: exim-dev@???
I'm seeing rejections like this:
retry time not reached for any host after a long failure period
But the message occurs instantly - not after a long period of failure.
Details:
The recipient server is actually down and has been down for some time. But a
new message comes in and it is immediately rejected.
However ....
If I delete the files in the /var/spool/exim/db directory then the message
stays queued. So something having to do with the way messages are identified as
being old is being stored incompletely. I suspect that there were already other
emails for this person that did expire.
Hope this helps.
