When a destination suffers from a PERSISTENT FAILURE (i.e. your
content filter is dropping connections persistently), then Postfix
will avoid wasting further resources on that destination for
$minimal_backoff_time.
Some people would take this as a hint to solve the problem, instead
of flaming Postfix for reporting the bad news.
