The "locked file" is because another exim process (most likely queue
runner) is already attempting to deliver that email. Which means
those two delivery methods (to local-bsmtp) are taking a long time
to process. Uping your retry time will not improve the situation
(and could quite likely worsen the situation as more proccess attempt
to deliver the same locked message - and hence more logging of the
same error messages).
What you need to do is do a manual delivery of one of those messages
with debugging (with exim -d -M <exim-message-id>) to identify where
the proccess is slow and remedy that.
