You are saying the time the SMTP connection with 127.0.0.1:10026 to the
time that the same connection is ended? And this interval includes the
processing too?

2) Jan 30 10:02:17 av5 postfix/smtp[5441]: 95CEE226F30:
to=<recei...@domain.tld>, relay=server[xxx.yyy.zzz.uuu]:25, delay=0.11,
delays=0.03/0.04/0.01/0.03, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok: queued
as 5C7951098002)

Why the time employed by the content filter to transmit the message is
different to the time to turn back the message to the queue nmanager of
postfix? Is it sympthom of congestion of active queue?
