One SMTP client process was delivering message DF7C21811E53, and that process hangs. THIS IS WHY YOU SEE THE 'DF7C21811E53: SKIPPED, STILL BEING DELIVERED' MESSAGE IN THE LOGFILE. Normally, a watchdog timer will terminate such a process, and the master will log a warning when that happens. The time limit is specified with (main.cf:daemon_timeout, and is 1800s or five hours.
