    Depending on your MTA and how it is configured, mail that is in the queue will continue to try and be delivered for about 7 days until your MTA marks the message as undeliverable and gives up. The longer the message is undelivereable, the less frequently your MTA will try to deliver it.

    60 is nothing. We have servers with over 2000 to 3000 mails in the mail queue...

    You can lower the queue time to less than 7 days if you desire by using WHM exim configurator. You must use this or Cpanel will overwrite your custom entries the next time it updates.

    Add

    ignore_bounce_errors_after = xd
    timeout_frozen_after = xd

    replace x with the value you want.
