I'm splitting this bug into two:
329192 remains the original bug about ignoring SMTP errors (message
#5) and having no queue expiry time (message #10).
The clone concerns the hammering on closed door effect of the
default pausetime, which is what has really taken up people's
bandwidth and log

Hi. Any news on getting this issue fixed upstream? I use nullmailer
quite a lot, and would hate to have it missing in the next release of
Debian. This bug have caused the nullmailer package to be removed
from Jessie. :(

Nullmailer retries unsuccessful deliveries forever. As a result, the queue
directory can become very large over time. Since no delivery status
notification is sent for failures, a user who accidentally misenters an
address will have a tough time figuring out what went wrong. Since the
output of
Package: nullmailer
Version: 1.00RC7-22
I'm running nullmailer on debian sarge on many systems. They all use a
central machine, running Sendmail 8.13.4-3 as their mail relay.
I find that nullmailer will keep re-trying a message despite receiving a
permanent SMTP error from the mail relay.
