Please describe the PROBLEM that you are trying to solve
(why delay mail), instead of the SOLUTION (hold and cron)?

For example,

- To avoid receiver mail rate limits (there is a better solution
  in Postfix than hold+cron)

- To inspect mail for badness (there is a better solution in Postfix
  than hold+cron)

- Something else.
