You can't prioritize a particular message unless you put all the others on hold and release them when the important message gets through. - If it is really local(8) mail, with LMTP handled via mailbox_transport, each user has a separate backlog queue, so you don't need this if the backlog is primarily for a small number of users and the "active" queue is large enough to keep "incoming" empty. - If "particular mail" means a particular mailbox, will all mail flowing to that mailbox prioritized, you can use a separate transport (name) for that mail (that is otherwise identical to the transport for other mailboxes). Each transport has its own queue, see above about queue size. -- Viktor. Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored. Please do not ignore the "Reply-To" header.
