Re: outgoing emails arrive hours after!

I was the contracted IT guy for the Reno office. I am now in GA working for
a county school system.

message transfer agent...if you examine the header information, it
should tell you exactly where the emails got held up...look at the
time stamps on the transfers from one server to the next...

The remote domain could be performing some sort of connection
control,
throttling, ie greylisting. Have them send you the headers, take a
look at the headers and find out from which MTA to which MTA is the
delay.

Hi

on a W2K3 with exchange 2K3 we have a very special phenomenon:

when sending emails, some mails arrive to their destintator very
rapidely
but the majority arrive some hours after or even some days after!

Exchange uses the internal DNS to send the emails but when I switch
to
another SMTP (from the ISP) the result is exactly the same.

I don't have any error message

The outgoing emails don't seem to be kept in the waiting queues
(they are
empty). The problem seems to come from the destination domains
then.

What could explain that some emails take hours to come ? How can i
run a
diagnosis ?

here is another hint that may help you:

Exchange is mainly used to share the mailboxes, agendas but does
NOT manage
the company emails.

The mail adreeses are pop adresses from external pops. For each
computer we
use the exchange account (default account) with several pop mail
account. So
when retrieving emails we use a classical pop retrieving mechanism
with
stores the emails in the user exchange account. For outgoing emails
we use
the exchange account. The default smtp adress for each account is a
pop
address.

thanks
