Looking at the headers, it appears that the delay is happening between
freefall and harborcom.net. I'll scan through the mail and see if I can
see any that are handled by my mailer machine as an intermediary (I'm one
of a few) and check if the delay is similar. I'd wager it would be, and
I'd also wager it depends on list traffic to freefall at that time,
unless harborcom.net is experiencing transient delays.
