I think problem does exist for everyone but these are the people who expect mail to be delivered IMMEDIATELY.
Do you have any traffic-shaping device or any device with QoS in your network?
Why don't you conduct small test be yourself sending several mails to/from any free email provider at different time and see if the mail delivery is consistent?
You may find something interesting..
Best of luck.

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: email latency |
Does anyone on this list ever have email the takes as long as 1 week to be
delivered. I know how MS exchange works and you can set a retry period (say
10 minutes)in the internet connection tab, but I have heard the some mail
admins don't set a retry and the default time for retry is 24 hours. Or
could a mail relay at my ISP be causing the problem. Now most of our mail
goes to us just fine, but some people in the company (VP, secretaries of the
Pres., Comptroller...etc.) are complaining about latency in their email
delivery. Of course they are the ones you have the problem. Why couldn't it
be some peon in interoffice mail with the problem?
ANY help will be greatly appreciated.
Tim
