Retained messages not received from bridge at first startup

[lrodorigo]

I am using mosquitto v1.4.12 in eclipse-mosquitto Docker image.

Hello, I am performing some tests in the following scenario.
I have two brokers, Broker A (in my LAN, no public IP) and Broker B (public IP, deployed on the cloud) connected through bridge functionality (A connects to B).

Broker A configuration:

connection cloud
address <server IP>
topic # both 2
bridge_protocol_version mqttv311

I am using default values for the other settings.

If I publish a retained message when both Broker A and Broker B are active I am able to receive the message both from clients connected to Broker A and from clients connected to Broker B.

Instead I noticed a problem in the following case.

I shutdown Broker B, publish a retained message on Broker A. Then, I activate Broker B.
Clients that connect to Broker B do not receive the retained message (until I manually re-publish the retained message on A), i.e. it seems that Broker B does not retrieve retained messages from Broker A at startup.

Conversely, in case I shutdown Broker A, publish a retained message on B and, then, activate Broker A again, retained message is received both from clients connected on A and clients connected on B.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm seeing the same thing with develop branch.

Broker "local" has outbound, qos1 topic mapping to "remote"
publish retained to local.
restart "remote" broker -> clients connecting to remote don't see the retained messages.

This is fixed in my local fixes branch and will become part of 1.5.3 shortly.
