Normally, mail flows through the server pretty quickly, but remember: (a) there are over 500 subscribers to the list now, and it does take some time to process that many messages, particularly if there are several messages sent in a short time; and (b) mail delays can occur at other places along the way, such as your ISP -- if mail can't be delivered on the first try for whatever reason, there's a backoff interval between retries, so a modest length outage can turn into a somewhat longer delay in incoming mail.
