This is not correct. Only "content_filter" settings are queue-file sticky. Transport resolution happens each time a message enters the active queue. If the OP used a content_filter that does not at this time correspond to a transport in master.cf, a "postsuper -r" may be required. If the OP has a entries in the transport table that map destinations to non-existent transports, then a simple update to the transport table is sufficient. -- Viktor.
