Sounds like a mess... As far as I know there is no manual admin
intervention at all on normal incoming posts. It just takes a long time
for the mail server to send it out.
coffeehouseltd.com is my mail server. If you look at the headers I
posted closely, you'll see it leave your machine, hit the list server
and then sit for a long time on bart.nks.net (outgoing mail server),
before being sent to coffeehouseltd.com. If you look at the headers for
the mail _you_ received, of course the final destination will be
different. I've regularly seen posts sit on bart for up to and over an
hour.
