Hi,

I am new to the world of Postfix and have been requested by my employer to set 
up a series of Email Delay Notifications for our server.  

A bit of information:

Postfix version 2.3.8-2+etch1
Debian 4

Currently the main.cf file is set to:
delay_warning_time = 4h

I understand this to mean that after 4 hours the sender will receive a delayed 
email notification.  

What I have been tasked to do is try to set up a series of Delayed Email 
Notifications as follows:
10 minutes
30 minutes
1 hour
3 hours
6 hours

At first, I thought to simply add additional delay_warning_time lines, but then 
I figured that Postfix was simply taking only the last delay line that was 
listed, thus nullifying what I am wanting to accomplish.  

Having read through the postfix documentation, I am understanding at this point 
that what my employer is wanting may not happen, however I am determined to 
exhaust all possible routes before I go to him with an unfavorable result.  

Does anyone know of a way where I can set Postfix to send out multiple Email 
Delay Notifications at various intervals?

Thanks to anyone who might be able to assist with this issue!
