This happens to me occasionally - you have to look very closely at the 
mail headers to figure out what
actual host the error occurred on.  Go to that host, then to 
/var/log/exim4 and you will see the paniclog
there.  Usually take a look at it, and delete if nothing 
earth-shattering. Usually a network or DNS outage
will cause this blip.

hope that helpz,

Matt
