I guess you don't run the Exchange server too but can you confirm with
those who do that they didn't have problems at those times? I deliver to
Exchange servers too and they go down several times a week and I see it
immediately in my stats and always report how many retries I did and how
much mail was queued and stuff like that. The Microsoft guys squirms in
their chairs because they have no clue what happened, they just
rebooted. :-)

Don't look at these since it's the receiving end (stat=queued), not the
delivering one.

These are the ones you should look at for delay times (stat=sent or
stat=deferred). This (deferred) just means that they need to reboot it
again. It's not a problem at your end.
