Further information. Both of the last 2 emails sent from my laptop have been delivered immediately. Its the emails I send out from my iPhone that are getting caught in the queue. I sent one to an external address that queued up as described. I sent another directly to my address, and it got delivered immediately. I don't remember making any changes to my iPhone recently, either.
