Bug#329192: nullmailer ignores permanent SMTP errors

I'm splitting this bug into two: 329192 remains the original bug about ignoring SMTP errors (message #5) and having no queue expiry time (message #10). The clone concerns the hammering on closed door effect of the default pausetime, which is what has really taken up people's bandwidth and log

I've prepared a fix for this along the lines I suggested. It proved awkward to choose between mv_conffile and rm_conffile due to the multi-stage nature of maintainer scripts, so I ended up using rm_conffile and inserting some code in the postinst script to capture the dpkg-bak file and rename it
