Assuming the time was set accurately on the sender's computer and all 
the routers along the way.

Just to belabor this point some more

If you think a message has suffered a long delay, carefully examine ALL the
Received: lines in the message header (you may need to configure your E-mail
client to view them), being careful to compensate for time zone differences. 
You will be able to re-create the time line from when the poster pressed the
SEND button, to when it arrived in your mailbox, including each stop inbetween.
  Thus, you can see any places where the message got held up.

>From what I have found, the time on the posts is the time you hit the
send button. This is prior to when I "empty outgoing mailbox". Yes,
I know some go out in one function. What ever time it takes after that
can be anyone's guess. Anyway, so what! It's faster than my mailman.

 Matter of perspective. We are getting a free ride with this list and
mail from the list is low priority. Count the number of daily messages and
multiply by 2,000 and you will see we are generating a lot of traffic.
