Are you sure? Check the Received: headers on some messages.
For example, the message I'm replying to has this :

So, you sent the message yesterday at 2:22pm (-0600). I received it
today, at 4:01am (-0400) which is the same as 2:01am -0600. Murphy
must be really overloaded now because it took about 12 hours for your
message to make the round trip. I guess the archive pages were
rebuilt in less than those 12 hours, so the message appeared in the
archive before I (and you, presumably) received it.

I replied about 6 hours before I received my reply through the list
:-).

It's a reasonable thought.
