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.
Oh ok that looks quite interesting. Obviously I am a little worried that
if something here is down mail is not going to be queued and bounced. So
I would prefer to have something that is deciding on ‘infrastructure’ instead of something like this.
QGRP:slow-poke.com slowgroup
QGRP:root@notify.com fastgroup
QGRP:your.domain localgroup

Currently these are trying to deliver ndr's constantly to eg amm@dhl.com
and bounce@nds.fedex.com.
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?
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
And if there is a temporary problem you want the message to fail
after 3 tries?

Would it be possible to `tag' a message with eg. a message header and on
the basis of this header the queue slowgroup is used?
