Until now I thought, that queue runners are started according the "-q…"
option. (Or additionally triggered by external means (cron,
some user, …) The 15m above just means, that during the first 2 hours the
*minimum* distance between to delivery attempts has to be 15 minutes.
The spec reads:

| run deliveries exactly at the computed times. Instead, a queue runner process

| new deliveries only for those addresses that have passed their next retry time.
Please correct me, if I'm wrong.
