Many emails going to junk.

I brought this up with our hosting company and they that the program will 
deliver emails instantaneously unless there is something wrong with the 
member's ISP.

I have sent them information based on responses I have received and they are 
going to try and check the various ISP’s.  If you are experiencing delays in 
receiving mail from the list, please let me know.

[Matthew]

I have no experience with Precision.  As I alluded to earlier, however, North 
sails are good, but in my view not worth the high cost.  You pay a premium for 
the name.

FYI, I use a local ISP, VelocityNet based in Erie, and am presently having

If I understand it correctly, these delays are happening only to emails that
are handled directly by the ISPs; there is very little they can do about any
emails that are handled by a y of the global email providers (gmail
(Google), outlook/hotmail (MS), Yahoo, etc.). 

 

It might make sense to switch to one of these email providers. 

 

Just my 2 cents

The techies at our hosting company have done quite a bit of testing
regarding the slow delivery of emails.  It is surprising the results they
found 

-- all of the ISP's investigated are deferring messages at their whim and
will.  You might get the first email sent at 1:00pm within a couple of
minutes.  But if a second message comes in at 1:01pm, the ISP could defer
it.  The delay time varies and there does not seem to be a pattern.

 

Bottom line is - if you think messages are not being delivered in a timely
manner, contact your ISP.  A delay of 3-5 minutes is normal. Messages that
are being deferred could also be getting lost in cyberspace.

 

Don't expect to get a clear explanation from your ISP.  Once they have your
money, you only get what they give.

 

Stay safe

[Danny Haughey]

So, I just looked at the sale and compared the price of the stainless 
receptacle by just googling the part number.  Boat ID has the same part for 20% 
less than Fisheries sale price of $102, BoatID has it at $83.  I've used BoatID 
previously and have good experiences but, I am not affiliated with them at all.

Totally agree - it is a great upgrade.  I installed one 8 years ago, and 
reviewed it for Good Old Boat magazine.  Easy to install, and I'm totally happy 
with it 8 years later.  I like that the plug has a double positive lock into 
the socket - the side tabs engage first, and then when you lower the outlet 
cover back down it locks it again.  Nice fat blades on the connections.
