As documented:
address_verify_poll_count (default: normal: 3, overload: 1)
HOW MANY TIMES TO QUERY the verify(8) service for the completion of an
address verification request in progress.
This specifies how many times a query will be made for one address
verification request in progress.
As documented:
address_verify_poll_delay (default: 3s)
The DELAY BETWEEN QUERIES for the completion of an address verification
request in progress.
This specifies the delay betweem the $address_verify_poll_count
queries for one address verification request in progress.
