So, as we have 2 large gaps in email receipt times…..
in my case from around 2300 last night to 1300 today
and from just before 1400 to 2030 today
I take it some of the servers sending mail will have failed to send and retried. If they finally timed out (see Eric’s post above) I take it they will have delivered an ‘unable to send’ message to the originator.
Not sure if that gets recognised at the sending end in the case of automatic mailing lists?
However hopefully all mails have got through, or failed with notification to the originator and none arrived but got ‘dumped’ before delivery due to the server fault?
