Oh, quite right, sorry about that, thanks for clearing up that point. I
totally skipped the part about the retries, my mail-skimming abilities
seem to be failing me.
Although I don't have a better work-around, I still find that to be a
kludge to fix someone else's broken propreitary code. Luckily, since I'm a
one-man-show, I have the option of blocking the offending senders with
IPtables, which is something I also do for many of the zombie spam-bots
that pound on me relentlessly. Hmm, maybe spam-bot code was lifted from
Lotus! nah...

You miss the point. Lotus Notes would think there was a network problem and
immediately start another delivery attempt (i.e. not wait for the retry
interval). While I don't care what someone else runs, I do care when the
server keeps banging on a door I already have shut (and thus taking up a
valuable slot). Maybe I won't care much when I'm running pollserver...
