The Postfx SMTP client will retry delivery after a soft error (host or port not reachable) until the message expires in the queue (by default, maximal_queue_lifetime = 5d). The Postfx SMTP client will NOT retry delivery after a hard error (host or domain does not exist in DNS, user does not exist on the remote SMP srever). Wietse
