Having more concurrent connections than your server can confortably be
able to handle should not result in bouncing mail. Why is mail being
bounced?
When connections to our mail server time out, sending MTA retries the
message. If subsequent retries of that message time out as many times
as the sending MTA is configured to retry, the sending MTA bounces the
message.
