Now, as no decision is made, I want to continue to hold for another 13
days more.
Will this change, hold the queue for another 13 days more? Or it
remembers the earlier lifetime of 7 days for those in hold queue?
IMHO messages will stay in hold queue forever.
Correct, held messages are not subject to the queue lifetime limits
while they're held. Once released, delivery will be attempted at
least once, but if that delivery is not immediately successful,
the message may expire if old enough.
Man page for "postsuper" mentions that if you want to release a message
from hold queue, which has been there for a long time, you should use
"postfix -r", so it gets a new queue id and its lifetime starts from 0.
Hence the recommendation to use "postsuper -r" (not "postfix -r").
