Looks to me like the principal delay is at your end.  Note the
timestamps in the Received: headers:

Received: from relay2.pgsql.com (relay2.pgsql.com [64.49.215.143])
    by sss.pgh.pa.us (8.12.8/8.12.8) with ESMTP id h2M9fjub029237

The time delay from smtp4.cp.tin.it to my machine looks to be only
twenty minutes --- but if the first Received: is accurate then the
message sat on 80.181.165.152 for nearly ten hours.
