The re-use time should equal or exceed the duration of the slowest
reasonably plausible connection + transaction latency when one of the
MX hosts is unwell (overloaded). If you drop all the other SMTP timers
you can drop the re-use time-limit to match, or leave it higher, it
does not harm if the servers don't object.
