I gather that there are technical reasons, and I think I understand them all 
(per country/region partition of mailboxes and such), but am not certain.

Again, it's a hack; I'm not happy with it personally, but that's the way it 
apparently was designed, and that for cause.
Huge mail systems frequently don't work the way we normal mortals would 
intuitively expect them to.

I gather it's now being discussed in some depth if there's not a better way of 
doing this, but it's not my call.

Suffice it to say the complaint has been heard.

Aloha,
Michael.

The "immediate retry" could be read as "immediate".  From a receiver's 
perspective, that does not sound like a good idea.  Why would the receiver's 
implementation require segmented delivery?
