This is not enough for queue files copied from another location, you
have to adjust the queue file name to give it a suitably "unique" id.
The right way to do this is to create an idle Postfix queue (instance)
in the same file-system, place the archived queue in the maildrop queue
of the idle queue, then run "postsuper -s" in the context of the idle
instance. After the queue file name is adjusted, rename the queue file
into the maildrop queue (same filesystem!) of the active instance.
Putting archived files into a live queue can lead to queue-id collisions
and lost mail.
