Bug ID: 2638
Summary: retry database / first failed doesn't correlate with
logs: success recorded as failure, result retry times
exceeded
Product: Exim
Version: 4.92
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Routing
Assignee: unallocated@exim.org
Reporter: grin@grin.hu
CC: exim-dev@exim.org
Similar to (but not the same as) #463 or #636.
The main difference is that I have a difference between the logs and the hints,
also I have no special retry rules.

So it does not seem to be failed at "first failed" time.
On "last tried" it was showing my reported problem: exim tried to deliver,
again, and 5 MX responded 451 for all the recipients (5x4=20 times in total),
and then I got what I didn't want to:
2020-08-25 15:26:47 1kAYy7-00B0GU-8s ** xxx@xxx.de: retry timeout exceeded

message to sender/vissza a feladonak"

Clearly "first failed" was long time ago, but since it was a success there
weren't any non-failed deliveries (nor retries) since, so the current 4xx
immediately got cutoff and bounced.
I have no special retry rules (apart from changed times):
exim4 -brt xxx@xxx.de
Retry rule: * * F,12h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,6h;
