IF all it's waiting is a minute, Ireally wouldn't complain too much. That's 
nothing at all.
Then again, it could be falling back to this in crontab too
# Retry failed deliveries once per minute.

1 minute of wait won't kill anyone. Nor will two or three. You can't change 
that entry in cron tomake it go any FASTER (once a minute's about as fast as 
you want to process an application).
