I have a couple of quick questions:
1) How long does a message sit in the postfix queue for before it attempts
a redeliver (a deffered message sat in the deffered queue)?
http:/www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#queue_run_delay
http:/www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#maximal_backoff_time
http:/www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#minimal_backoff_time
http:/www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#maximal_queue_lifetime
with hotmail, and what I get is, hotmail defers the message as well as
sending it to the backup mx, so that when the backup mx delivers the mail
which goes through fine, hotmail are retrying as well, and you end up with
two of the same message? How do you overcome this?
If hotmail sends the same message to the backup and to the primary
MX, then there is nothing that Postfix can do about it.
