I notice it on occasion. I've only seen it between you and Glotmorf, but I 
might have missed an incident or two. Also, it seems to be in glotmorf's 
clock:
Received: from charybdis.ellipsis.cx (charybdis.ellipsis.cx [67.37.29.129])
        by bd-home-comp.no-ip.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 76E6914E09F
        for <bdonlan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>; Sun,  4 May 2003 21:47:48 -0400 
(EDT)
[...]
Date: Sun, 04 May 2003 21:54:51 -0400

My clock is synced via network time protocol, so it should be accurate to a 
few seconds. The Date: header is added when it's sent, but the above header 
is when I received it. As such, Glotmorf seems to have a 8-minute clock 
drift.
