Dumping them back in the spool folder should get the mailer to cycle back over them. If the problem in delivery was transient, then it will work the second time. However if the problem with the mails isn't transient, but a problem with the mails specifically, it will end up back in your undeliverable folder.
For example, you could have had a transient error that the smtp server your using stopped accepting outbound after reaching a certain message over time threshold. Or, the smtp server could be doing a strong level of validation before sending the email. For example it might be checking the validity of the from address, or it could be doing an MX lookup on the target domain before accepting them, etc. You would need to talk to the admin of the smtp box to know for sure. Good Luck!
