Since more and more SMTP servers use greylisting, I’m increasing the lifetime of how long our servers keep trying to resend failed emails.
I’m using this setting:
maximal_queue_lifetime = 7d
I know 7 days is really long, but better safe than sorry.
Here’s a more thorough listing of all the queue lifetime settings from the Postfix documentation.
