man sendmail:
-q[time]
Process saved messages in the queue at given intervals. If time
is omitted, process the queue once.
Looks like there is no default (maybe your OS uses some startup
command with a "default" retry time).
If you want a non-linear retry:
MaxQueueAge=age
If this is set to a value greater than zero,
entries in the queue will be retried during
a queue run only if the individual retry
time has been reached which is doubled for
each attempt. The maximum retry time is
limited by the specified value.
