+PH/45 In a pipe transport, although a timeout while waiting for the pipe
+      process to complete was treated as a delivery failure, a timeout while
+      writing the message to the pipe was logged, but erroneously treated as a
+      successful delivery. Such timeouts include transport filter timeouts. For
+      consistency with the overall process timeout, these timeouts are now
+      treated as errors, giving rise to delivery failures by default. However,
+      there is now a new Boolean option for the pipe transport called
+      timeout_defer, which, if set TRUE, converts the failures into defers for
+      both kinds of timeout. A transport filter timeout is now identified in
+      the log output.
