Yes, the the SMTP archiver would be taken into account in the
reported %y time.

The start timestamp event is taken right after amavisd writes its SMTP
greeting to a tcp socket after session establishment. The end time for
the %y purpose is at the time when the log entry is generated, which
includes all but some final cleanup, which should be insignificant.

As Andreas noted, the TIMING report (at log level 2) is the ultimate
reference.
