Do you mean outbound emails were delayed? or incoming mail? The log shows an outbound email.

Is your server busy?

And, please ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS show us basic info of your iRedMail server:

Well i think incoming emails are getting delayed. the thing is that i'm using third party software for spam filtering, my incoming emails are getting 10 - 15 mints delayed is there any log by which i can know what is the reason.

Re: Email getting delayed

No useful info in pasted log. Will it be delayed if you disable that third-party anti-spam software?
