SMTP is a "best effort" protocol. It does it's best to deliver mail in a timely manner, but places more emphasis on fault tolerance than on speed. Spam filters exacerbate the problem. How do you know your e-mail didn't sit in the messaging queue on your outbound mail server for two days before it was delivered? |
