Network problem between shaw and idig, the idig mail server being congested and not handling the shaw SMTP threads etc. With just the headers there is no way to say that it wasn't a network problem or something external to the shaw mail server. The only way to know for sure would be to examine the logs on both sides, and from that track down exactly the culprit. With only the headers the only thing you can say with certainty is it took 50 min for the final delivery hop. There is no way to lay blame on shaw's door step. | Received: from pd5mr4so.prod.shaw.ca | (pd5mr4so-qfe3.prod.shaw.ca [10.0.141.168]) by l-daemon | (Sun ONE Messaging Server 6.0 HotFix 1.01 (built Mar 15 2004)) | with ESMTP id <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Mon, | 30 Aug 2004 14:24:26 -0600 (MDT)
Now with that said I happen to know some people who work in Shaw operations I'll try to get ahold of them and see if they have any idea WTF is going on.
