Thanks! .. good observation.

In this case, the lag appears, looking at my headers, that hostgo has this
timeout problem?  If so I can just post a trouble ticket with them.  If
not, I gotta explore my mail round trip: google->hostgo->textdrive->google.

My concern is whether or not my "sophisticated" mail setup with mail
forwarding and google's "reply to" .. both of which allow me to have my "
[email protected]" address rather than my google address "
[email protected]" which I'd prefer not to use.

DNS unique name: good. 20+ years and loving it!

If others of us are seeing delays, and can check their headers to see where
they are, that would be a Good Thing.
