This .dupload.conf fragment has been working for me for some time:

if (exists $ENV{DEB_NMU_DELAY}) {
    $delayed = "/DELAYED/$ENV{DEB_NMU_DELAY}-day";
}

# Tollef Fog Heen's DELAYED queue
$cfg{'tfheen-delayed'} = {
    fqdn => "gluck.debian.org",
    login => $ENV{DEBUSER} || getlogin() || $ENV{USER} || $ENV{LOGNAME},
    incoming => "~tfheen$delayed",
    dinstall_runs => 1,
    method => "scpb",
};

Then 'DEB_NMU_DELAY=3 dupload --to tfheen-delayed foo.changes' for a
3-day delay.

Cheers,
