+### `max_event_delay_duration`
+
+The maximum allowed duration by which sent events can be delayed, as per
+[MSC4140](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/4140).
+Must be a positive value if set.
+
+Defaults to no duration (`null`), which disallows sending delayed events.
+
+Example configuration:
+```yaml
+max_event_delay_duration: 24h
+```
