This was implemented by checking for + being in a queue run, which isn't quite right. Now it checks the + "first_delivery" flag instead. + +PH/30 Exim was sometimes attempting to deliver messages that had suffered + address errors (4xx response to RCPT) over the same connection as other + messages routed to the same hosts. Such deliveries are always "forced", + so retry times are not inspected. This resulted in far too many retries + for the affected addresses. The effect occurred only when there were more + hosts than the hosts_max_try setting in the smtp transport when it had + the 4xx errors. Those hosts that it had tried were not added to the list + of hosts for which the message was waiting, so if all were tried, there + was no problem. Two fixes have been applied: + + (i) If there are any address or message errors in an SMTP delivery, none + of the hosts (tried or untried) are now added to the list of hosts + for which the message is waiting, so the message should not be a + candidate for sending over the same connection that was used for a + successful delivery of some other message. This seems entirely + reasonable: after all the message is NOT "waiting for some host". + This is so "obvious" that I'm not sure why it wasn't done + previously. Hope I haven't missed anything, but it can't do any + harm, as the worst effect is to miss an optimization. + + (ii) If, despite (i), such a delivery is accidentally attempted, the + routing retry time is respected, so at least it doesn't keep + hammering the server. + Exim version 4.63 -----------------
