Hello all qmailers!
I'm new to qmail, so I'm still getting my sea legs. One question that has
come up is how does qmail handle delivery problems and what schedule does it
use?
I think I've found the retry schedule...
t(0) = start time [secs]
t(i) = t(0) + (sqrt(t(i - 1) - t(0)) + 10)^2 [Local]
t(i) = t(0) + (sqrt(t(i - 1) - t(0)) + 20)^2 [Remote]
But I can't seem to find how qmail decides to give up on delivering a msg.
My experience is that it's around 3 days, but I'd like to know exactly.
Anyone know where/how this is handled ?
Thanks,
- Scott
