Don't change the limit. 10 is more than enough under normal
circumstances, and raising it won't help in this case because you have
a "hard" failure.

I don't think you can fix it. You have to delete it or move it aside,
and likewise the
1144517700.391892+9d0539757315ed1143fe2ffa0cb6d234d0093fde.msg file if
any. The .msg file is an ordinary text file containing the message. If
you look at the file after moving it aside and decide the message
should be posted to the list, you can use bin/inject to requeue it.
