I don't think that happened (at least not yet...)
But things to consider:
There must be some kind of automated spam-filtering going on. Or we'd be
awash in spam.
PHP's servers are donated, and the load must be enormous.
It's not *THAT* bad a lag -- It's a mailing list, for Pete's sake.
Posts are gatewayed to/from the newsgroup. That might introduce some
inherent lag as duplicates are culled or something...
I don't know WHY posts take hours to get through, but I'm not honestly
seeing it as a "problem" personally.
