Yes, because it is implemented in the queue manager which is a
long-running process.

If you use defer_transports to freeze mail deliveries, then some
messages may get close to the bounce_queue_lifetime, meaning that
Postfix will try to deliver them only once.

To avoid that, use "postsuper -r ALL" to create new queue files.
