950
951 EX_TEMPFAIL -- temporary failure, indicating something that
952 is not really an error. In sendmail, this means
953 that a mailer (e.g.) could not create a connection,
954 and the request should be reattempted later.

961 the command that was given is a non-existent path). By default this is
962 treated as just another failure, but if freeze_exec_fail is set, the reaction
963 is to freeze the message rather than bounce the address. Exim used to signal

971 if a support program or file does not exist. This
972 can also be used as a catchall message when something
973 you wanted to do doesn't work, but you don't know why.
974
975 However, this can be confused with a command that actually returns 69 because
976 something *it* wanted is unavailable. At release 4.21, Exim was changed to
977 use return code 127 instead, because this is what the shell returns when it
978 is unable to exec a command. We define it as EX_EXECFAILED, and use it in
979 child.c to signal execve() failure and other unexpected failures such as
980 setuid() not working - though that won't be the case here because we aren't
