qmail Doesn't Generate Deferral Notices
If Sendmail is unable to deliver a message within a few hours, typically four, it sends a deferral notice to the originator. These notices look like bounce messages but don't indicate that the delivery has failed permanently yet.
qmail doesn't send such warnings. A temporarily undeliverable message will only be returned to the originator after it spends at least queuelifetime seconds in the queue.
