from the docs:

"delays=a/b/c/d" where a=time before queue manager, including
message transmission; b=time in queue manager; c=connection setup
including DNS, HELO and TLS; d=message transmission time.

a=63191 seconds before queue manager.  This message waited ~17.5
hours before the queue manager attempted delivery.  Some combination
of very slow initial transmission to postfix, and/or the queue is
very busy with other mail.

b=0.43 seconds in the queue manager. This may seem like not much
time, but still high enough that I suspect there's a lot of mail
queued. On a lightly loaded system this will be near zero.

c=5.1 seconds for the connection setup.  That's really slow, but
could be from delays at the receiving end.  A more typical setup
time would be 0.5 or less (but this could be a destination with a
5-second greet wait, and a "real" setup time of 0.1 -- not enough
info here to tell). If connections to *all* destinations are slow,
this could indicate DNS problems and/or an overloaded network
connection.

d=0.19 seconds for message transmission. The message transmission
was quick once it started. Maybe it was a very small message; no
info shown here on the size.  Postfix logs the message size in a
separate "qmgr" log line.


Maybe you have lots of mail backed up in your queue.  See the
"Problem Solving" section of the docs for more ideas.
