While writing papers for class, I tend to use grammar that will help the reader understand my message. I suppose this is why grammar and mechanics are under "delivery". In order to properly deliver your ideas to your audience, you need to construct your thoughts so they are a cohesive unit. I'm not entirely sure what "mechanics" are, but it probably has something to do with grammar as well. Maybe it's sentence structure, or stylistic ways to develop sentences. I'm sure I'll find out with the two readings I'm about to do.
When I write for other people, I tend to ignore my grammar. Only when the proofreading process begins, do I actually spend time with grammar. I'm not sure why this is, but possibly it's because it's easier to get your thoughts down, and then polish them up later. Then you can play with the way you phrase certain things so it becomes a much more enjoyable experience while reading.
