That's somewhat overly aggressive. My ISP experience is that customers' mail server frequently crash over the weekend or holiday, so they stay down for a few days. I've seen mqueue with several 100,000 emails a few years ago after a long weekend, today the numbers are probably even more lethal. Everything handled by sendsnail, btw ...
