options.
Timeout.resolver.retry.first
Use this option to set the number of times to retransmit a resolver query for the first
attempt to deliver a message.
Timeout.resolver.retry.normal
Use this option to set the number of times to retransmit a resolver query for all
resolver lookups except the first delivery attempt.
Timeout.queuereturn=
time
Use this option to set the timeout on undelivered messages in the queue to the specified
time. The failed messages will be returned to the sender after the delivery fails for this
amount of time (e.g., because of a host being down). The default is three days.
UserDatabaseSpec=
userdatabase
Set this option to get forwarding information from the user database. You can consider
this as an adjunct to the aliasing mechanism, except that the database is intended to be
distributed; aliases are local to a particular host.
ForkEachJob
Use this option to fork each job during queue runs. This may be convenient on
memory-poor machines.
SevenBitInput
Use this option to strip incoming messages to seven bits.
EightBitMode=mode
Set the handling of 8-bit input to 7-bit destinations. Mode can be set to the following
values:
m Convert to 7-bit MIME format.
p Pass it as eight bits.
s Bounce the mail.
MInQueueAge=timeout
Use this option to set the time interval between attempts to send a message from the
queue.
DefaultCharSet=charset
Use this option to set the default character-set used to label 8-bit data that is not other-
wise labeled.
DialDelay=sleeptime
If opening a connection fails, sleep for sleeptime seconds and try again. This is useful
on dial-on-demand sites.
NoRecipientAction=
action
Use this option to set the behaviour when there are no recipient headers (To:, Cc: or
Bcc:) in a message to action. The action can be set to the following values:
none Leaves the message unchanged.
add-to Adds a To: header with the envelope recipients.
add-apparently-to
Adds an Apparently-To: header with the envelope recipients.
add-bcc Adds an empty Bcc:
add-to-undisclosed
Adds a header reading To:undisclosed-recipients:

mon will allow to spawn at any time to N.
ConnectionRateThrottle=N
Use this option to set the maximum number of connections per second to the SMTP
port to N.
