queuetime sets the expiration time on new mail. Changing queuetime has no effect on the expiration time of messages already in the queue.

Ok. I suspected something like that based on the behavior.

I know that I can cancel the old messages from the queue, but is there any way to do it that will cause Courier to bounce them with the normal undeliverable message?

Based on reading the docs, I think I can modify the E record in the control file to a time about 10 minutes or so in the future and then restart courier. Courier should then bounce the message after the next delivery attempt. Will this work or am I just going to get things screwed up by attempting it? Is there an easier way?
