E-mail delays

Anyone else receiving delays to the time mail is taking to arrive in their blueyonder account??

I phoned up techinical support and they said there's no reported problems. However a lot of my mail is arriving late into my Inbox - some of it delayed by over 12 hours.

Would be interested to know if anyone else is having this problem.

Re: E-mail delays

Its more than likely a mailserver just trying to catch up. Its possible someone used their VM account to send a mailshot and of course, the server couldnt keep up causing a back log.
