| Google, do not be evil. |
As it turns out Google Apps infrastructure has a BUG that is causing emails delay. The only available suggestions is to set up spf record. But this is not going to solve it .All delayed messages have the following in email headers, ip is different each time , though. Received-SPF: error (google.com: error in processing during lookup of This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it : DNS timeout) client-ip=74.125.82.181; Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=temperror (google.com: error in processing during lookup of This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it : DNS timeout) smtp.mail= This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it The Ugliest thing there is no official reaction from google, yes i know the service is free , this problem is there for months already . http://www.google.com/search?q=google+apps+mail+delay Google, please please do not be evil!
