You can't. The frequency and the amount of time that passes while the 
message attempts to send to the requested host is determined by the 
mail server's administrator. No worry. The server will eventually 
give up. I would say though that your mail server admin is extremely 
generous as trying for 3 days to send the email espescially in this 
day of spam. A very high large number of spam are directed at non 
existing domains and as such, that server will be trying to reach 
these non existing hosts for 3 days every few hours. Lots of wasted 
time on that mail server that it could be putting to the use of 
receiving and sending good email.
