When I had similar issues between the core Exchange servers in Houston and a
remote one in Italy, that the queues in the MTAs would bunch up behind a
large message. After extensive Exchange troubleshooting (in vain) it
turned out we had a "dirty" WAN circuit - when that was replaced mail flow
returned to normal. Strange thing was that it appeared fine, Terminal
services to the remote box didn't bomb and pings were fine [1], although it
transpired that the circuit was dropping a hell of a lot of packets.
Concentrate on troubleshooting the network, I'd be surprised if it's an
Exchange issue....
[1] Crude I know.
