Package: exim4
Version: 4.34-10
Severity: critical

Hi,

After upgrading to 4.43-3, all my mails (I use fetchmail) were in the
mailq because of a configuration problem. Now I see there has been an
update of exim4 so I tried it. But when someone sends me a mail, it
bounds! I attach the mail someone received after sending me a test
message.

Thanks for taking care, this is a very important package!

I did not receive my mails for 12 hours. I know it's difficult to
maintain a package and it takes time. Please, be very careful. Thanks.
