I assume you wanted a lower number during the day, say 20.
Anyway, queue_run_max takes an integer, not an expansion string. (If it
did you could play with conditions on substr_-8_2{$tod_log} to get the
hour.)
So the only thing I can imagine would be to have a script out of cron
which changed your config at appropriate times.
Is there a reason why all things that take integers can't be expansion
strings expected to resolve as an integer?
