Why don't you try a delivery with debugging turned on, to see how Exim
is handling this message? Make it do a queue run for just the one
message, so that the conditions are identical to real queue runs and the
retry rules are inspected. For example:

exim -d -q 1C29oW-0004AC-00 1C29oW-0004AC-00

If the debug output (sent to stderr) looks suspicious, you can always
send it to me for comment (though I am shortly going to be away for 2.5
weeks).

For the record, which release of Exim?
