Symfony version(s) affected

6.3

Description

The commit 8fc3dcc45d37ba5daaea5549d228cfd10adfb506 introduced a backward-compatibility breaking change in src/Symfony/Component/Messenger/EventListener/SendFailedMessageForRetryListener.php.

Before this change, when throwing a RecoverableExceptionInterface, the message was retried infinitely. It is documented in to do exactly that in Force Retrying.

How to reproduce

Don't override max_retries or set it to a low number like 3 and throw a RecoverableExceptionInterface. Once the max_retries threshold is reached the message will be sent to the failed transport.

Possible Solution

Solution 1: Add a separate Exception Interface that respects the max_retries threshold and revert this commit.
Solution 2: Announce the breaking change and introduce a separate Exception Interface - or an Exception code - that ignores max_retries.

Additional Context

I'd be happy to implement solution 1 or 2 if you want.
