Based on the headers in this example, exim delivered the message
within seconds of when Joe sent it (14:03 -0800 == 16:03 -0600).
Maybe you should be looking at your MUA?

This is when it was delivered to the mailstore (convenient that you
have the delivery_date_add transport option set).

This is when exim received it (the same second)

This is when Joe's MUA created the message (seven seconds earlier,
but by a different clock in a different time zone).
