When did you post this one? The headers show when it passe through
each MTA along the way (in reverse order):

So it took about 10 minutes from your mailer to my ISP (give or take a
little, allowing for possible lack of clock sync) fo this one. Next
time you see a delay, look at the message headers and you'll see where
the delay is. In this case, most of the 10 minutes is at panix.com.
