Yahoo too....it seems to catch up on the weekend.  Last Saturday I got list mail from the prior Monday to Friday.  This week I had several 2-3 day delays.

Yahoo suggested I look at the full header to see where the delay is ocurring, but I'm not computer savvy enough to figure that one.

I don't mind the delays as much as receiving posts out of order....makes it hard to follow the thread when older posts are received after new ones.
