Since you are running Declude, what I would recommend is checking the IMail
SMTP log file for an E-mail that was delayed (the SMTPD lines where the
E-mail is received), then check the Declude log files for the same E-mail,
and finally check the SMTP log file for the delivery of the E-mail (the
SMTP "ldeliver" or "rdeliver" or "gdeliver" line). The times of those
lines will provide a clue.
Yesterday, we had someone who had a similar problem, and the log files
shows that the E-mail was received and scanned by Declude almost
immediately, but it took another 90 seconds for the E-mail to get sent
out. In that case, there was a DNS problem, so IMail was sitting and
waiting for results from a DNS server that wasn't responding.

That's normal -- the SMTP32D.EXE process is the IMail SMTP receiving
process (the one that receives SMTP E-mail), and the SMTP32.exe process (of
which there can sometimes be many) is the SMTP delivery process.
