Whichever mail arrives first wins. If you're personally CCd/BCCd on a message that personal copy will usually be what wins, as that doesn't have the extra hops through the mailing list software queues. If multiple lists as CCd, then it is much more random/unpredictable which list is fastest and thus arrives fast.
