    I was wondering if I could tune the incoming mail server better.
    Currently these are trying to deliver ndr’s constantly to eg amm@dhl.com
    and bounce@nds.fedex.com.

    Nice would be if such ‘external’ messages would only be tried to
    delivered two or 3 times. For messages that have to be delivered to the ‘internal’ the ‘default’ 5 days can be maintained.

    ‘internal’ maybe defined as a few ip ranges?

    Why does your system generate DSNs?
    And why aren't those delivered?

    Maybe you could fix those problems instead of trying to work around
    them and also affecting other mails?

    And if there is a temporary problem you want the message to fail
    after 3 tries?

    You could use "Queue Groups" and change the retry times,
    but the overall timeout is global -- though there are
    some "suboptions", see doc/op/op.*, e.g.,

    If the message has a normal
    (default) precedence and it is a delivery status
    notification (DSN), Timeout.queuereturn.dsn and
    Timeout.queuewarn.dsn can be used to give an alter-
    native warn and return time for DSNs.
