Back when I used to do this under Exim by parsing the mainlog for
messages which arrived long before their delivery time.  Given a
frequent high enough score on this, I'd then do a domain route to a
similar Bad Mail box.

It was nice to automate it.  No attention required.

Did you have any automated way to collect and maintain the slow MX
list?  One thing I never did was to implement a system to rescind
the "slow" verdict on MXes should they come back to life for a
reasonable period.
