message deferred

Post by wkuypers »

Hello,
On one of our domains we had a time-out after 6 seconds and the message was deferred.
Other messages 5 minutes before or after the event, were all accepted between 0 and 33 seconds.

So why is he suddenly deferring a message after having waited only for 6 seconds ?

Message: Connection timed out
Delivery attempt from mail.rollernet.us deferred after 6 seconds

There's really no way of knowing. The destination server could have sent a TCP RST packet or dropped the connection mid-handshake, failed to send a SYN packet, etc.
