Slow IDNet email

[Dopamine]

Anyone else suffering delayed receipt of emails to idnet.com email addresses? I'm seeing delays of between 10 minutes and 40 minutes.

There seems to be a backlog following the outage at lunchtime.

I would think that there would have been a lot of mail that was in the process of being delivered by the mail server as things went into meltdown. Also, users probably had many emails ready to go in their outbox and once their connections came back up, the server may have been a bit overwhelmed.

[Rik]

Exactly. I went for the short version.

You were just keeping traffic to a minimum.

[Rik]

Naah, keeping finger wear to a minimum.
