[Linux-users] Exim Timeout.. Causing server to get way backedup!

[Andrew Rosolino]

My question is.. It timesout at 5 minutes.. Can we lower this to like 1
minute.. I don't want it spending 5 minutes on all of these messages.

Sincerly,

In that case the problem is the MX server for the domain isn't responding
and your system is attempting to connect to deliver messages queued for the
domain.

This could be a DNS problem, but it's more likely a network or server
problem.

If the domain really is x.cn, there are three MX records, but all three of
them have the same IP address which is almost as stupid as the time all of
Microsoft's DNS servers were on the same class C /24 network.
