For some reason, emails from senders who send an email via outlook (Microsoft SMTP Server) are always delayed. I have attached part of email header below which states that email was sent on "Fri, 22 Dec 2017 12:04:07" and received by recipient on "24 Dec 2017 09:35:51". I am trying to figure out if this is something to do with recipients' server.
