Web mail is usually free, POP mail you pay for, there is no
profit in fast web mail.

| I understand that web mail uses port 80 and POP email uses
port 110.
|
| I can upload an email with a 130KB attachment via my POP
server in a few
| seconds.  The same message/attachment to a web mail server
(using the same
| Internet connection) takes over 4 minutes.  I have tested
this with two
| completely separate web mail servers (using the same
Internet connection)
| and the slow results are the same.
|
| Actually I get the same 4+ minute upload speed on two
entirely unrelated web
| mail servers.  I have run the test several times and the
upload to both web
| mail servers is equal within a few seconds.
|
| Can the ISP cap the upload speed of port 80 independent of
port 110? If this
| is possible it might explain the tremendous difference in
times.
|
| Any thoughts?
