Hi Micheal, Thanks for your reply. Actually, the issue was I was just writing the mail and it got Sent by mistake. (But, then reading the mail I thought that the message was conveyed.)
The issue is, why does postfix retry the second time instantly (within 1 sec)? Shouldn't postfix wait till the next deferred queue scan happens? (I'm talking about backoff time etc). It tries the delivery 2 times within 1 sec. My understanding says that it should wait till the minimum backoff time. On Thu, Jul 25, 2013 at 1:01 PM, Michael P.
