That's why some end of the line ISPs use mail servers higher up the line. My ISP for example quit hosting their own mail server when the customers started to complain about missed email. They are now using a mail server 8 hops away from my IP log on. The number of error messages has dropped considerably but we still can't access email several times a day. Even then the wait to download is approximately 17 seconds versus mac.com's 4 seconds. -- Mac Canada is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
