There is a lack of knowledge about this on my side

I have add to file /etc/exim4/conf.d/main/02_exim4-config_options the load
control settings

# Abandon queue run if load gets above this level (if unset, use the above)
deliver_queue_load_max = 3
# Start queueing instead of delivering if load gets above this level
queue_only_load = 3
# Maximum number of simultaneous incoming SMTP calls that Exim will accept
smtp_accept_max = 3

Unfortunately unsuccessfull, the error messages in /etc/exim4/paniclog still
appear.

Greetings Axel
