Description

When scheduled messages are sent, they inherit the timestamp of the message used to schedule them. So if I set up an hourly message using a cron string and give it a ttl of 5 minutes, any message sent 5 minutes after I set up the schedule goes straight to the DLQ.

I am suggesting that the TTL field apply to the generated message and the generated message get a timestamp based on when it is sent. This way a single repeating message can time out without stopping the whole schedule.
