Mail shows up at my address at about 15 to 25 mins after I send out a
message also.

I get it. And yes, I agree 25 minutes is a lot. After all, we have a dual

My guess is that majordomo is sending mails synchronously, and that it has
problems to send to a bunch of people that it tries to reach before it sends
mail to you. But I haven't done any research so I might be completely wrong.
