[ST] OFF-LIST Re: Delayed emails?

In a previous email, Rupert Galea stated:
> If there is a problem with delayed emails that can be documented let
> me know and I will open a ticket with dreamhost.

Rupert,
This is something that I had compiled looking at some of the emails from 
the past few days. I had sent this to Matt Heyer who was insisting that 
it was Dreamhost's fault.

-----------------
It's tough to tell from just those where the problem may lie. Although 
the delay is happening at Dreamhost, the originating email is coming 
from yahoo which is a previously known base for spammers. Dreamhost may 
be sitting on it for a bit to make sure that it is not spam.

However here are some others (my notes are preceded by ;//):
#1
A server in South Africa sat on this one for 9 minutes. This is a 
recurring one with this poster (Marc Van Est):

A perfect example of screwy times, these are copied directly in the 
(reverse)order that they appear. This is a recurring one in posts from 
Martin Fay:

The sending server, or in the transmission process? Unfortunately, time 
stamps only show when it was received not when it was sent:

Same as the last one and at about the same time. There are a few more 
going to the comcast server which is my ISP's.

I think that's enough for now. If you still have the last two posts 
saved maybe you can check the headers and see if it was dreamhost or 
comcast that sat on it. The posts are
#4: Re: [ST] List T from BrettWilson21@xxxxxxx 2/16/06 5:15pm
and #5: Re: [ST] List T from Neil.Lindsey@xxxxxxx 2/16/06 5:28pm

I won't go on with the rest that is undelayed, and is just sending the 
message back out.
