The header for this message from Ross shows it was received by the
listserver at 14:11:15 Pacific Standard Time (usa) and then received by
my mailserver at 17:03:25 Central Standard Time (usa). So subtract 2
hours and it took about 52 minutes. It was virus scanned by AngelicHost
and my internal mailserver before delivery. Maybe the scans are adding
excess wait time to the process.

if it WAS located on this side of the Pacific Ditch, based on current
performance, you would see DAYS between posts, because it typically
takes an hour or two before I see posts too

I thought that the list server was located in Australia but when I
looked it up in whois it shows up in Florida and administered by Donald
Verhagen!?

I have to add my two bits. Okay, I don't 'have' to...
I use the exact same email group software (majordomo 1.94.5) on my
'home'
system with over 7000 subscribers to over 180 different email groups.
Our
groups never see the delays the members of this group see, so with
all
due
respect, there's something different happening that's causing the
lags. We
often see as many as 200 emails a second going out of our server,
which is
an 800mghz PIII with 120GB disk, no mirroring (I know, bad idea) and
running fedora core 4 (old...). Our group members get their emails
back
within seconds, literally. I send an email to this group, and it
sometimes
takes an hour or so before I see it come back to me. I send an email
to
one of my groups at home, and I get it back within seconds.
Now then, with that said, I've also added bulk_mailer to my email
group
server so maybe that speeds things up a great deal. I don't know. I
did it
so I would quit getting the annoying 'too many email connections from
your
server' errors I see from aol, hotmail, msn, yahoo, netscape,
netzero,
juno, gmail, . . . ad infinitum of the 'big' email hosts.
My point? none really, other than to show that Charles' nice
numerically
explained _time travel_ doesn't match my real-life experience with my
own
majordomo server...
I don't know why, they just aren't the same.

To fix this problem, you'd have to
redesign the methods under which the internet manages and routes
mail.
