According to the spawn(8) manpage:
RESOURCE AND RATE CONTROL
transport_time_limit ($command_time_limit)
The amount of time the command is allowed to run before it is
terminated.
Postfix 2.4 and later support a suffix that specifies the time
unit: s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), d (days), w (weeks).
The default time unit is seconds.

Indeed. If it is used for a policy daemon, don't set the time limit
shorter than the expected life time of an smtpd process. Use the
suggested default in the README file.
