If a message is older than the "first failed" time when computing a
retry, use the message arrival time instead of the "first failed" time.

Similarly, if it contains a Reply-To: header, the errors_reply_to option, if set, is not used. +PH/19 When calculating a retry time, Exim used to measure the "time since + failure" by looking at the "first failed" field in the retry record. Now + it does not use this if it is later than than the arrival time of the + message. Instead it uses the arrival time.
