It's LSMTP's equivalent of a "Unable to deliver message for 3 days." message.
 
It means that LSMTP has a message(s) to deliver to USA1.COM.  Every once in a
while it tries to deliver it, but can't, for example, because USA1.COM is down
or is otherwise not accepting the message.  So after a while, by default 3 days
with LSMTP, it gives up trying and returns the message.
 
I agree, I think it's a dumb way to phrase the message.
