Hi,

Since about 19:00 GMT yesterday we have been unable to deliver mail
to ntlworld.com addresses as their mail server is temporarily
rejecting all our messages like so:

$ sudo grep smtpin.ntlworld.com /var/log/exim/mainlog | tail -3
2006-09-07 14:06:10 1GLIEr-0002D9-01 == [elided]@ntlworld.com T=remote_smtp
defer (0): SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data: host
smtpin.ntlworld.com [81.103.221.10]: 421 Message rejected
2006-09-07 14:06:35 1GLJaF-00079E-00 SMTP error from remote mailer after
initial connection: host smtpin.ntlworld.com [81.103.221.10]: 421 Service
not available
2006-09-07 14:06:35 1GLJaF-00079E-00 == [elided]@ntlworld.com
<leicester-leicester-[elided]@leicester.lug.org.uk> T=remote_smtp defer
(0): SMTP error from remote mailer after initial connection: host
smtpin.ntlworld.com [81.103.221.10]: 421 Service not available

There are now over 1000 emails waiting in the queue, most of which
have recipients @ntlworld.com.  None of the subscribers of your
lists with ntlworld.com addresses will have received any mail since
yesterday evening.

I have informed postmaster at ntlworld.com and will let you know when
it's working again.  If they fix it quickly then the mails should
still get delivered.

Cheers,
Andy
