I have a few ideas, many of which involve NOT posting the exact same thing
to the same list half a dozen times.

I'm guessing that you're using smbclient, and note that the error message
is in how long it takes to list a directory.  All kinds of things can
affect performance; for example, if you're posting messages to a mailing
list at an insane rate from the same directory, it may slow things down. 
You can always increase the smbclient timeout, or use a different backup
method.
