If this is only a delay what about DNS or IDENT problems?
Could be that the IDENT protocol used from the mailers causing
the problems? If Yes, You have to stop using IDENT. The LVS HOWTO
includes information about the IDENT problems. If this is not
the problem you have to show us a picture of your devices, IPs,
routes, etc.
