This has been answered off-list, so I repeat here: it's not enough to just put files 
back into the queue - the destination addresess may be marked as failed in them and 
will not be processed any more. The failed recipient address will be listed in the 
queue file as

R E 05-10-2001 22:32:58 0000 mail.host.name account

The second character 'E' here means "Error". That should be changed to "Waiting":

R W 05-10-2001 22:32:58 0000 mail.host.name account

Best regards,
Dmitry Akindinov
