On looking at your own message to the list i note this from the headers:

ie your ISP (gollum.snap.net.nz) received it at 14:57:54 but didn't spam
check it until 20:43:28. I conclude that gollum is probably probably
underpowered to cope with scanning its mail queue. 

It is probably faring just as badly with mail being sent to you.
therefore mail takes a long time to reach you.

Time  for another ISP?
