As documented -D attempts to start a debugger process when the SMTP client process is created. This process will handle subsequent delivery requests without attempting to start another debugger process. Therefore -D is not a good way to force delays between deliveries. To force delays between deliveries to the same destination, see http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#transport_destination_rate_delay (requires Postfix 2.5 or later). Wietse
