The weird thing is that this never seemed to occur (at least not for me)
when the list was at Hearn. After the move to iTRiBE, though, it did start
happening. At first I thought it had to do with the listserver software,
but that didn't seem to be it after you switched it to ListServ (which was
what Hearn used as well, IIRC). Distance from the server seems the most
likely explanation to me ATM.
