I'm guessing that the problem is external to your company given that your queues are empty.
I'd check the "Received: " headers for date/time consistancy. Start at the first one. Towards the end of the line is a date-time group. Check this date with the next line. Perhaps only a few seconds difference. So check the next one. A few more seconds? OK. check the next one... Eventually, you probably will find one that is way off... However, you also have to take into account time-zones... One hour off but coming from a mountain states ISP? OK... Is the message coming from a PC that is off line when the message was composed? The "Date: " line is composed when the message is queued for delivery. Just some thoughts...
