We are using the default retry configuration:
* * F,2h,15m; G,16h,1h,1.5; F,4d,8h
My understanding is that for the first 2 hours, exim will retry every 15 minutes
at Fixed intervals.
But this is not occurring. exim tried to redeliver after 57 minutes.
Here is the exim_mainlog:
+++ 1Vp0G4-0005Vz-TB has not completed +++

Is there another parameter conflicting with the default configuration?
