Public bug reported:

The fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1729472 will cause
OutgoingRunner to continually dequeue and requeue the message after the
first 15 minutes if DELIVERY_RETRY_WAIT is greater than 15 minutes. This
is because RetryRunner will wake up and requeue the message to be
retried in the out queue and from there, when OutgoingRunner determines
it's not yet time to retry, it just requeues the message in its own
queue.

RetryRunner should wait until DELIVERY_RETRY_WAIT has elapsed before
moving the message to the out queue.
