NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION SEE ALSO AUTHOR
exinext - program to extract information from exim retry database
exinext domain
A utility called exinext (mostly a perl script) provides the ability to fish specific information out of the retry database.

Exinext is not particularly efficient, but then it isn't expected to be run very often.
There is extensive documentation available in /usr/share/doc/exim and in the info system regarding exim. Please be sure to have the exim-doc package installed.
