Hi,

I’m running Mailman version 2.1.14 on an Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS build, with Postfix 
MTA.

I recently noticed up to one hour delays between Postfix delivering messages to 
command "/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post [listname]", and Mailman 
effectively sending out the message to list members (as evidenced in Postfix 
log file, email headers, and Mailman logs). 

The delays are consistent in that each posted message, to any list and with any 
number of subscriptions (between 1 and 250), is delayed by at least 20 minutes.

The Mailman "post" log file /var/log/mailman/post does not indicate the message 
being posted, until the message is finally being sent out up to one hour after 
the post. 

However, the list’s archives, as well as the list’s digest.mbox file, DO 
contain the posted message immediately after posting, confirming that Mailman 
did instantly receive the message from Postfix.

Similarly, email notifications to admin (new list, memberships, …) suffer from 
the same delays.

There are no errors found in the qrunner, mischief, or smtp log files that give 
pointers as to why this happens. 

The system is not under any load to speak of, and Postfix is running fine 
otherwise, delivering mail to local users and remote recipients instantly. The 
mail queue is virtually empty.

Would running separate, verbose instances of qrunner possibly give me any 
insight, and how should I go about this? Any input is appreciated.

Regards,

Nicolas
