All of the above.

Please keep in mind that are 9 processes involved in grinding through a 
single message sent to a mailing list hosted here ...

1. Your mail client
2. Your mail server
3. My ISP's mail server
4. My mail server
5. MAJORDOMO
6. My mail server
7. My ISP's mail server
8. Your mail server
9. Your mail client

Add to that the various hops, skips, and jumps a message might make while 
traversing the wide open spaces of the internet.

Sometime this year I hope to have DSL service so that I can eliminate my 
ISP's systems and receive the mail directly.  That will probably eliminate 
some of the delays and sequencing errors.
