WinXP Pro/SP1
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?
