Exim4 -- MANY "temporarily rejected RCPT" WITHOUT any reason?
Hi,
I've started to have a problem yesterday with exim4 on an old stable box
(lenny).
# exim4 -bV
Exim version 4.69 #1 built 30-Jan-2011 20:48:48

Fixed never_users: 0
Size of off_t: 8
Configuration file is /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated
/var/log/exim4/mainlog is spewing lots of "temporarily rejected RCPT"
lines without any explanation.
I've looked through all files changed in the last 24 hours (since just
before the problems started), but cannot find anything significant.
Some emails are getting through, others are not -- I don't know what the
difference is b/w the two types. Not many emails are getting through.
Server doesn't appear to be heavily loaded either.
I can't make sense of this change and therefore don't know what to do to
fix it.
Any ideas?
