What option / feature do I modify to either increase the time before the
warning is generated or disable it altogether?
Thanks
Steve
define(`confTO_QUEUEWARN', `16h')dnl
change the 16 to whatever value you want.
This will cause the line
O Timeout.queuewarn=16h
to appear in your sendmail.cf file.

Also, it is not logical to set the warning time to a value larger than the
return time (which defaults to 5 days). You can set the return time with
define(`confTO_QUEUERETURN', `7d')dnl
Do you really want such a long time, or were you just testing? Usually
you will want to know about delays in mail delivery long before 6 days.
