Hi Sam,

I've been testing this version of courier now for 2 days. I must say
that I am quite pleased with this new setting. It works as you have
documented, and is perfect for large backlogs. As long as courier keeps
hitting the high watermark, the timer is triggered, and it ensures that
the queue is promptly refilled. And in case courier manages to deliver
messages much faster and hits the low watermark before the timer expires,
the queue is again promptly refilled.

I think that this improved queue-handling, together with per-host
concurrency limits and connection caching makes courier-MTA much more
capable of handling high loads quite efficiently.

This problem helped me understand courier's queue handling much better,
and I also appreciate your speedy response with a solution.

Kudos Sam!
