Comcast Email internal routing delays - A disaster

For the last few weeks Comcast seems to be experiencing internal email routing issues. A verification email originating through Microsoft takes an hour to route to my email box. Keep in mind the authentication code for verification expires after 5 minutes. I've pasted the email header (redacting my email address). It's bad enough that Microsoft takes 14 Minutes, Comcast then sits on the email for a further 42 minutes.
