The outgoing mails from Google Apps/Gmail to our own custom SMTP server are getting delayed by 1 hour consistently. mxtoolbox.com diagnostics of our custom SMTP server are looking OK. Our custom SMTP server is receiving emails from other sources (yahoo, hotmail etc.) on time.
Looking at the SMTP logs show a delay in a google intermediate SMTP server.

This setup has been working fine for a year though our custom email server was missing a reverse DNS entry and SPF records. Thinking that this could be the cause of the issue, we added these entries a week ago. But the issue still persists.
Here are are more details:
We are using Google Apps to host our primary domain email (say: mydomain.com)
The custom SMTP server (say: s1.mydomain.com) hosts our subdomain (say: sub.mydomain.com)
This is how the email log looks from
[email protected] to
[email protected]
Return-Path:
[email protected]
