If the sending machine also runs Postfix, you can get the data
dates from there:
qmgr ... size=xxx gives the message size.
postfix/smtp ... delays=a/b/c/d gives a) time before entry into active
queue, b) time in active queue, c) time to connect, d) time to transmit.
It would be useful to know if only *some* messages are slower than
other messages or if there is a general pattern.
