I had the same problem with a client using AOL whom used to complain constantly that email using our mail server took over an hour to deliver. I had him telnet to our servers port 25 and paste me the string and it gave the AOL's mail server banner, it seems they route all outgoing traffic to port 25 (SMTP) to their own mail server.
It is so transparent most people don't even notice it.
