Log Message:
New feature: automated pending queue cleanup. Upon receipt of an
incoming message, tmda-filter will trigger a cleanup of old messages
in the pending queue, dependent on PENDING_CLEANUP_ODDS. The lifetime
of a message is dictated by PENDING_LIFETIME.
Since this isn't run on every incoming message, performance impact
should be minimal, and offers a more convenient alternative to
running a cron job or cleaning messages by hand. This inconvenience
is exacerbated by large and/or multi-user installations such as
under vpopmail/tmda-cgi.
It's also non-intuitive that messages will live in the pending queue
indefinitely unless the user intervenes, and in-fact this was one of
the most FAQ on tmda-users.

+If you are upgrading from a release of TMDA < 0.77:
+
+* By default, tmda-filter now performs an automated cleanup of the
+ pending queue upon receipt of an incoming message. If you wish to
+ use this feature, you should disable any cron jobs you might be
+ running to periodically purge your pending queue of old messages.
+
+ The default cleanup interval is approximately once per 100 incoming
+ messages received. To tweak this interval, or disable this feature,
+ see <URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#PENDING_CLEANUP_ODDS>.
+
+ When this feature is enabled, the default lifetime for a message in
+ the pending queue is 14 days. Any message older than 14 days will
+ be deleted. If you wish to raise or lower this threshold, see
+ <URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#PENDING_LIFETIME>.
+
+ This feature respects the
+ <URL:http://tmda.net/config-vars.html#PENDING_DELETE_APPEND>
+ setting.
