Postfix - enable_long_queue_ids assures unique QueueIDs?

I want to aggregate log lines by QueueIDs. As far as my understanding of postfix, when enable_long_queue_ids= no queueIds are ensured to be unique within the lifetime of a message, and for the second the queueID is created. This means a queueid could be reuse once a message has been processed.

I wonder if setting enable_long_queue_ids = yes would ensure uniqueness of queids accross log statements, beyond the lifetime of a message.

enable_long_queue_ids = yes

Ensures longer queue IDs (queue file names). Of course the number of possible queue ids is finite, but for all practical purposed the will be unique for a longer period of time (like 5 days).
