Hello,I have hit the limits of my ISPs mailserver while subscribing to the Debian BTS and the queue was runing for over 4000 messages at once. Q 1: If a customer use my "courier-mta" as relay, how can I limit the outgoing queue to for example 1 message in 10 seconds?
There's no such rate limiting option available. Courier will, generally, send mail at the first available attempt. There is an upper limit, but it's a different one. Courier will, by default, open no more than four separate connections to the same destination domain (could be different individual MXs, or a single MX). Any additional messages to the domain gets held until one of the existing connections finishes delivering its message.
Q 2: The Debian BTS received my messages (647) over 2 hours and then
there is nothing for a long time and then it send out 1294
messages in batch at once... which can hit the incoming queue.
Is there a possibility to delay the threatment of the incoming
queue?
Not sure what you mean. Courier itself will accept a maximum of 5 simultaneous connections from the same /24's worth of IPs, and/or up to 5 simultaneous connections from a single IP address. That's set in the esmtpd configuration file. That's the only available rate limiting.
