Let's assume that you specify:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
default_transport = smtp
relay_transport = smtp
smtp_destination_rate_delay = 120s
With this, Postfix inserts 120s between deliveries over the smtp
transport. There will not be two messages back to back.
In other words, your "first" message will not be sent if something
was sent in the last 120 seconds over the smtp transport.
