  What is "lengthy"?
  As noted ASSP is a not mail server. If it cannot connect to its target
server, it drops the connection.
  The sending MTA should queue and re-send the mail at regular
intervals, usually four hours, for up to 3 days (actual times depend on
server configuration), before giving up.
