There is one vehicle on the planet that costs more per mile to operate than any other.
•More than a Semi Truck.. •More than an Abrahams Tank •More than a B2 Bomber •More than a Saturn 5 Rocket! •More, even, than an Aircraft Carrier!!
It's the most environmentally fueled vehicle on the planet. It has zero emissions, no carbon foot print, and requires very little maintenance...
They can (and do) go anywhere - they've been found on paved roads, gravel roads, mountain trails, beach sand, lakes, rivers, canals, you name it...
It's not all that big (you can put several, even dozens of them parked in the space of a compact car). Consequently, if you have a large family, you might even have to drive two at a time!
It didn't start out all that expensive to operate, however..
Do you know the reason why it costs so much to operate today? Choose one..
(a) Government Regulations (b) Government Subsidies (c) Government Debt (d) All of the above
If you picked (d) you are correct.
And unless you make it even more expensive by paying someone else (Uber, etc.) to drive it for you, YOU probably drive one often!

After several days of using these settings (without the mail queue), I'm happy to report that it seems to avoid the problem with delayed or missing notifications. There has been decent traffic on our forum, and all the notifications were sent on short notice, without exception. Thanks for this very valuable hint!
Now it's time for me to go through the bounced mails to hopefully help at least with some of them.

php7.3, nginx 1.15.8, mariadb 10.3. Fresh 1.1.5 install.
When attempting to change Choose the method for the management of the attachment directories to Auto Subdivide by months and years and checking box Create new directories within a base directory, there is an error "in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given".
Mail that goes into the queue will not be sent unless there is some traffic on the site to trigger the sending event. Even bot traffic should trigger the sending. If there is no traffic, or very sporadic traffic, the queue can take some time to clear. If you are on your own server running w/o the queue should be fine. If you are on shared hosting you could be limited by number per hour or per min.
If you have to run the queue, you might be able to run a cron job that simply fetches the main page of the site with curl or wget, I think that would also trigger the queue. ...
Thank you for this explanation! I have deactivated the mail queue now, and will observe to what extent this helps with our problem. A very first quick check looked promising! I will report back here as soon as I have results.

All good scoop, and.. I discovered that sometimes you just have to contact the recipient and tell them if they want email from you THEY have to contact their own host and request your server to be "whitelisted", hoping the host will be more responsive to their own users than to you as a sender.. and that's even if you can figure out how to contact them.
For example:
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
xxxxxxx@comporium.net host comporium-net.mx.av-mx.com [150.136.204.204] SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 5.7.1 [VI-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message. xxxxxxxxx@northlink.com host northlink-com.mx.av-mx.com [150.136.204.204] SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 5.7.1 [VI-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message. xxxxxxxx@tds.net host mx.tds.net [129.159.64.89] SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 5.7.1 [VI-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message. xxxxxxx@tds.net host mx.tds.net [129.159.64.89] SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 5.7.1 [VI-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message. xxxxxxxx@zoominternet.net host mx.armstrong.syn-alias.com [193.122.187.19] SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 5.7.1 [VI-1] Message blocked due to spam content in the message.
In this case, doing an IP lookup those IPs are all actually hosted on the same "data center", and you get to play "who's to blame/who can fix it" ping-pong (with you being the ball) between the data center and the hosted domain owner. (All of the above are on the same Oracle Data Center in Virginia. They think it's spam because the same message from the same server is hitting their various hosted IPs at the same time).

If you can live without the mail queue, turn it off.
Mail that goes into the queue will not be sent unless there is some traffic on the site to trigger the sending event. Even bot traffic should trigger the sending. If there is no traffic, or very sporadic traffic, the queue can take some time to clear. If you are on your own server running w/o the queue should be fine. If you are on shared hosting you could be limited by number per hour or per min.

Mail being rejected is part of the fun with email, especially if you are not sending it through one of the standard providers. If your server IP lacks "reputation" mail could be rejected. In those cases you will have to follow the instructions in the rejected email for how to get on a passlist for whatever provider is blocking you (like outlook). You also must have rdns, dmarc, spf, dkim all properly configured or rejection is sure to await.
