Hmm, I've never seen a delay like that. When I use my isp's mail server it
does take about 10 minutes for it to get delivered.
Lately I've been using my gmail account. It's the closest to instantaneous I
have seen (hope they can keep it up). I sent a message this morning to
majordomo@lists.debian.org and after I sent it I checked for new mail and
there was the reply about 5 seconds later.
Is there anything else in the mix that might account for those delays?
