There is, and there will not be, a queue between the Postfix SMTP
server protocol engine and the Postfix Milter client protocol engine,
where email messages wait until a broken Milter server comes back.
By the way, as long as Amavis isn't involved, I can get Postfix to queue
mail if the milter is down just fine, by setting things up as a content
filter that fronts the milter.
I.e., this configuration *does* queue email being sent to the milter:
smtp inet n - n - - smtpd
-o content_filter=scan:[127.0.0.1]:10029
scan unix - - n - 10 smtp
-o smtp_send_xforward_command=yes
-o disable_mime_output_conversion=yes
-o smtp_generic_maps=
[127.0.0.1]:10029 inet n - n - - smtpd
-o smtpd_milters=inet:localhost:8465
With this setup, if I stop OpenDKIM, the mail queues until OpenDKIM is
restarted, even though OpenDKIM is being called as a milter.
