E-mail issue?

[wallstreet123456]

I have two e-mail accounts setup on my droid one for gmail the other my verizon e-mail. I rarely ever get e-mail on them becuase I only recently set them up and have not given out the addresses yet but today I received an e-mail from my wife but it was sent yesterday.

Are there timing issues or is there something I need to do on my phone to correct this?
