The server will retry sending in first 4 hours, and every attempt will
try 8 times per MX. It depend on the traffic though, sometimes in 4
hours the server will retry 10 times , sometimes more and sometime less
than 4 (the server will check delivery schedule every 1 minutes).

It's depend on error messages when trying to deliver, but normally if
after 4 hours the message can't be deliver it will going to RetryQueue
in this list (will stack there for 3-days, trying delivery for next
days) or going to Relay Host for further delivery attempt.
MDP> After four days, the server will inform the list manager (in the

Correct, thank for the explanation.
