Hi,
We have a scheduled maintenance for around 8 to 10 hours for our Mail storage servers. During the downtime, we plan to HOLD all incoming mails and release them once the storage servers are up. To our existing smtpd restrictions, We added smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions and it worked. (postfix version 2.8.7)

smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions = check_client_access static:HOLD

The total size of mails is expected to be around 200 to 300 GB. My concern here is; will too many mails in HOLD queue, impact the performance? Is it the right way to handle this use-case?

Regards,
Clement
