Oggetto: [exim] SMTP timeout after pipelined end of data (5334 bytes written), hang at DAT 7247 LAST. Local_scan vs chunking issue?
Howdy,

Long time, no talk, sorry that I've been a stranger :)

I have Exim version 4.92 #3 built 07-May-2019 17:44:23
on both the backup MX and the main MX (both running debian)

I have an issue where some Emails go to the backup MX, then the backup
MX sends to the main MX, and the mail gets delivered to my mailbox, but
the transaction isn't finished in a way that the backup knows the mail
went through, so it sends it over and over again.

Well, except that with the same queue flush command I have a log of it
hanging and failing, and then a later log of it going through.
I am using sa-exim in local_scan which does run after DATA has been
sent. I'm not sure if this could be related.

It looks like this:

and then it hangs here.

In the logs, I see

But on the other side, I see:

The Email was scanned in 1 second and accepted.



I then ran it again, and it went through (well, I mean I got yet another
copy, but the backup MX is now happy that the mail went through).
