well, since the error was a non-fatal one (if I recall correctly) the
message will not bounce right away, but will try to resend for a while...
If sendmail was refusing connections for, say, 4 hours, some messages might
be delayed up to 8 hours (with the default settings) before getting
through.  while messages sent right after the problem was fixed will get
through right away.

SOMETHING is screwy though. And as I said last time, the frequency of
incidents seems to be on the increase and it worries me. Maybe needlessly.

perhaps if lugnet had a secondary MX record, at least the mail will never
bounce...  Looking up in DNS, I noticed there is none.  Todd - if you're
interested, I could host a secondary, forwarding MX on one of our exodus
servers...  that should be fairly reliable...  Just let me know :)
