Ah, so *that's* what you meant by "deliver by BSMTP". There isn't a way
of doing this straightforwardly. But why is there a retry time set if
the messages for the domain have been stored in a file? One thing you
could of course do would be to set up a retry rule for the domain with a
very short retry time.
There *could* be some new -odsomething option that said "ignore retry
times when doing immediate delivery of messages accepted by this run of
Exim" - I suppose it might have other uses. I've noted the idea. (For a
single, manually submitted message, you can use -odq and -M, but this
isn't much good for -bS.)
