+PH/52 Two bugs concerned with error handling when the smtp transport is
+      used in LMTP mode:
+
+      (i) Exim was not creating retry information for temporary errors given
+      for individual recipients after the DATA command when the smtp transport
+      was used in LMTP mode. This meant that they could be retried too
+      frequently, and not timed out correctly.
+
+      (ii) Exim was setting the flag that allows error details to be returned
+      for LMTP errors on RCPT commands, but not for LMTP errors for individual
+      recipients that were returned after the DATA command.
+
+PH/53 This is related to PH/52, but is more general: for any failing address,
+      when detailed error information was permitted to be returned to the
+      sender, but the error was temporary, then after the final timeout, only
+      "retry timeout exceeded" was returned. Now it returns the full error as
+      well as "retry timeout exceeded".
