Without knowing more about how their network is run and what their current message delivery statistics are, all I'm seeing are a few complaints from a few people that they're seeing deliveries sometimes take 15-20 minutes.Well, on the thread in question, my response took 15 minutes to get back to me (well, 15:06 to be precise). That is by far the largest RTT for a list that I've posted to lately (not counting lists with servers down, etc.). This could very easily fit within an extremely reasonable delivery standard of 95% of all e-mail being delivered within five minutes, and 99% of all e-mail being delivered within one hour. I'm still not seeing a problem here. -- Brad Knowles, <[email protected]> "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.
