My email the class function ONCE again needs a swift kick.

How long should I wait before I assume it is not working.
It has been several hours since I sent an email.

Usually right after I ask about it.... is magically starts working.

THANKS

I have the same issue today. I sent out 159 messages 5 hours ago but it appears none have been read. Even I haven't received it yet!

My PC's mail client program can be configured to show both the "Sent" time and "Received" time. They are usually very close, but do vary by hours at times. I suspect that the "Sent" time it finds in the email is really when it was created. And for some popular email domains like Gmail where CC has to send out small batches of emails spread over an extended time to keep from being tagged as a spammer, the 'sent' and 'received' time will often be hours apart.

The attached example is for mail to my ATT/Yahoo address, and even that does show some extended delays.

We're also experiencing a delay in "email the class" today. Sent our eBlast around 10:00am PST, but it still hasn't arrived in (at least) my inbox at 5:30pm! Have to hope it will get to my 407 recipients tonight.

Update: Our emails went out/arrived at 8:15pm, so about 10 hours after choosing to send them.
