FYI, I use a local ISP, VelocityNet based in Erie, and am presently having no issues.

It might make sense to switch to one of these email providers. Just my 2 cents Marek -------- Original message -------- From: Stu <s...@snghost.com <mailto:s...@snghost.com> > Date: 2020-11-02 20:27 (GMT-05:00) To: C&C Email List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Subject: Stus-List Slow delivery The techies at our hosting company have done quite a bit of testing regarding the slow delivery of emails. It is surprising the results they found ---- -- all of the ISP's investigated are deferring messages at their whim and will. You might get the first email sent at 1:00pm within a couple of minutes. But if a second message comes in at 1:01pm, the ISP could defer it. The delay time varies and there does not seem to be a pattern. Bottom line is - if you think messages are not being delivered in a timely manner, contact your ISP. A delay of 3-5 minutes is normal. Messages that are being deferred could also be getting lost in cyberspace. Don't expect to get a clear explanation from your ISP. Once they have your money, you only get what they give. Stay safe Stu
