If a message is deferred because of transport problems, does it get re-routed when it is retried?
I can't tell from the manual what the behavior is. It refers to a "delivery attempt"; I can't tell whether that's a complete rerun of message handling or just of the transport. The manual also says that transports manage their own retries, which suggests they might just re-attempt the delivery. Roger West's example (thanks for the reference) from 2010-03-09 seems to imply rerouting occurs on retry, though it's not clear exactly how he forced the mail off the queue. Searching around, I also found a message that seemed to imply the routing was permanent--sorry can't find it now.
