in the logs i shared, postfix completes verification of one address:

Jul  9 16:49:02 msa01 postfix/cleanup[31520]: 3h7t0Z0VHwzJnP1: 
message-id=<3h7t0z0vhwzj...@msa.example.com>
Jul  9 16:49:02 msa01 postfix/qmgr[24500]: 3h7t0Z0VHwzJnP1: 
from=<double-bou...@example.com>, size=216, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jul  9 16:49:02 msa01 postfix/lmtp[31512]: 3h7t0Z0VHwzJnP1: 
to=<testuser-3...@example.com>, relay=mda.example.com[10.59.1.57]:7025, 
delay=0.02, delays=0.01/0/0/0.01, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 
Recipient OK)
Jul  9 16:49:02 msa01 postfix/qmgr[24500]: 3h7t0Z0VHwzJnP1: removed

then waits 15 seconds before starting verification of the next address:

Jul  9 16:49:17 msa01 postfix/cleanup[31520]: 3h7t0s0qsyzJnP1: 
message-id=<3h7t0s0qsyzj...@msa.example.com>

Jul  9 16:49:17 msa01 postfix/lmtp[31505]: 3h7t0s0qsyzJnP1:

delay=0.03, delays=0.01/0/0.01/0, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 
Recipient OK)

this is not a delay between the $address_verify_poll_count queries for one 
address verification request in progress.  this is a delay between two 
different address verifications requests, for two different addresses.  one 
completes, and is no longer in progress.  then the next one begins.

it seems to me that address_verify_poll_delay is not only affecting the delay 
between queries for one request, but also the delay between one request and the 
next.  given the documentation, i don’t think this should be happening.
