What you can't see without looking at the mail server logs on both ends
is delivery attempts. Greylisting for example can totally hose you over
depending on the implementation. Greylisting without whitelisting is
irresponsible.  How many tries did the digium server make before the
message finally got through??? That's what we need to know. Only Digium
can say.

Before poking Digium too much, I would look at exactly what YOUR mail
servers are doing that may potentially be the real cause of the delays.
