it's worse than that, the wait time is cancelled on a successful delivery
so young messages could ride the coat-tails of older ones.
The best approach is probably to have two exims the first accepting mail
and the second doing deliveries and move the messages accross manually
when they are old enough (see the "mailscanner" documentation for an
example of this)
/usr/bin/find or exipick may be appropriat tools for finding the
mature ones.
