Email forwards
Basically, every so often email (forwards) can take up to hours to be forwarded to the final destination. I know it's their server because I'll send the message to another forwarding account with another host and it arrives right away.
I called customer service and the way it was explained to me is that when a server is very busy incoming email is put into a queue and then sent out bit by bit until it eventually gets caught up. Does this sound right? I have not experienced this problem with other hosts, at least not to this extent.
1) Is this most likey a case of too many domains on a server?
2) Can mail be slow if a server is experiencing heavy http, ftp and other non mail requests- or is the mail part usually seperated somehow?
3) Could it be inadequate software?
4) If I move to a VPS, assuming the load is light- this problem should go away, right?
Thanks for your help.
