Thanks. Is there a variable that has retry data?
Or should I do one of these:
1) set very very very high retry times (say maybe 3-4 months, a year even?)
2) remove the retry db via cron (since this machine will only be delivering
to 1 server anyway, which is on the same lan and operated by me)
Thanks for your response Tony.
