--- Comment #7 from Alex Presland <exim@???> ---
While waiting to have absolute confirmation from "user@???"
that an email didn't arrive, some more emails have gone missing. One of these
was for "user@???" and I've received confirmation that the
email did NOT arrive.

The anonymised logs for this individual email are:

This time the email went missing while the queue was being run. The anonymised
logs for this are:

The message queueing started with 1aSh1I-0003Jj-L9 at 08:18:09 this morning,
due to a 421 response from the destination MX.

Please let me know if there's anything else that you'd like me to provide
(logs, configuration, etc.). Otherwise, I'll start working on getting you that
tcpdump between the server and mx.avasin.plus.net (212.159.9.200 /
212.159.8.200).
