please ignore previous response. I sent original message from the  
mail server that was having problems and received WARNING: delayed  
mail from the courier mailing list server. I have since fixed this  
problem by changing  ESMTP_USE_STARTTLS=0 in the courierd config file  
and restarting courier.
heh, after fixing it I flushed the message and the original delayed  
email went through.
