<quote from an article(1)>
This information can help the recipient use email more
efficiently. Of course, the importance attached to a messages
does not show the recipient how important a message is for her
(and not how important it should be either), but it indicates
how important it is for the sender, and that's a lot already.

I don't think the priority affects how fast an e-mail is
delivered.
