maybe a silly question but did you restart Postfix service? there might
be some other configuration issues that we don't know about?

postfix just drops (...) after issuing postsuper -r ALL:
Dec 21 21:24:51 mailserver postfix/postsuper[30232]: Requeued: 2 messages
Mails are still in queue. As you can see, the recipient address is
invalid so i just want to purge them - but with a bounce message to
the sender so he can resend it with correnct recipient.
Thank you!

I'm not sure if I understand you questions correctly.
have you try re-queue the email with the following command:
postsuper -r ALL
depending on your OS, I used FreeBSD it would usually be here:
/var/spool/postfix/deferred/
Thanks,

Dear Users,
i changed maximal_queue_lifetime from 5d to 1h but mails
already in queue are not affected by this change. How can i
remove mails from the queue and send
non-delivery-notifications to senders? i dont want to wait
more days. my queue shows:
root@mailserver:/home/cwadmin# mailq
-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------
