Hello

That we know, we have set this till 100 days the max possible.

But it's in case we have to reinstall the vm, due to error or unrecoverable.
There for we want the queue to be stored on a nfs share, that way when the vm 
is rebuild and the nfs is mounted he can send the mails stored on the nfs.

Is that possible? 

Met vriendelijke groeten                         
Kind regards

You can adjust how long postfix will leave mail in the queue before it's 
considered undeliverable and returned to sender.  The default is 5 days.
