smtp busylooping
Here is another case of busylooping smtp transport:
in smtp.c:1761 smtpconn() continiously returns EX_TEMPFAIL
(I have yet to investigate the reason for that), and
the process goes into cycle between lines 1754 and 1763...
Oh, here is the reason for EX_TEMPFAIL:
in smtp.c:2086 getmxrr() returns EX_UNAVAILABLE, which, a dosen
lines below, resuts in return EX_TEMPFAIL.
Let us see how getmxrr() works...
seems that for some reason mx[i].ai are getting null despite
mx[i].host are filled with good values; and all mx[*] are
invalidated around line 4675; then the function returns
EX_UNAVAILABLE.
I cannot realize why this may be happening so far... Anyway,
as a result of this problem, a bunch of mail cannot ever be
delivered. Apparently this always happens for some domains.
