message.  Is this normal, it seems my messages to this list are delivered
faster than to my own.  I am using sendmail for my mta.

Sounds to me like you're doing anti-spam/anti-virus filtering after the mailing list. Don't do that.

Do all your filtering on inbound, and then set up another instance of the MTA with all filtering turned off, and listening only to a certain designated private high-numbered port on the loopback/127.0.0.1 interface, and then set up Mailman to use this second instance of your MTA for sending all outbound mail.

I'm sure this is covered in the FAQ.
