Adding "maildrop_destination_recipient_limit = 1" in main.cf solved part of
the problem, so I thought that I might be missing something else in postfix
rate controls.

Mails that appear at /var /spool/mail are multiple-local-users destined, so
their delays increase with every delivery. Loss of mails seems to be related
to this effect.
