Greetings Postfix-Users!!

I recently setup Postfix with a slew of other apps to fight spam, and I am 
using postgrey for greylisting.

I've noticed that after a few days, I have 4000+ email messages in the queue 
(as shown with
"mailq" command).  And the queue is growing.

I presume this must be something to do with greylisting.  I am receiving email 
as normal, and everything
seems functional.  I just want to be sure that having this many messages in a 
queue is normal and wont
cause problems down the road. All messages in the queue are addressed to 
foreign hosts and most
have "Operation Timed Out"

Should I be removing these?  My instinct tells me yes!  

For example:

F0F8AB18271  4871 Sun Aug 10 03:13:11  MAILER-DAEMON
       (connect to <host removed>[<ip removed>]:25: Operation timed out)
                         [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for any and all advice!
