how long is mail kept in the queue?

aza2001
Hi all. Really simple question...

How long is mail kept I'm the queue? And how often does it retry?

Seems as though I am missing approx 24hrs of emails.

I can see it all in the mail manager being received and forwarded but the exchange server never gets it (even though emails I have just sent comes through)

I just want to double check this setting

    Mail eventually flowed through.

    But this begs another question. How do I increase the number of days it keeps trying for?

    You can edit the conf file manually but I wouldn't recommend it mainly because astaro may rewrite it after an update. Besides, rejecting an email after some time is a good thing. You don't want to hold mails in your queue for days while the sender thinks that you got the email and are not responding. The mail system should generate a ndr (non delivery receipt) after a reasonable amount of time.
