Broken? Nope. QT includes the time spent submitting the message to
Exim, which ENDS with the first logline, at the start of DT. Look at
syslog and determine the time that the cron was supposed to start and
I'd bet it was 4AM.
Thus you probably have some issue on your mailserver that means
messages take a long time to submit at 4AM, rather than the QT time is
calculated incorrectly.
