Is the email delayed for all recipients or just a few or one? We have that routinely around with emails to large groups. The best way we have found to help alleviate it is to put one person in the To line and BCC the rest of the people. Usually by doing that the problem goes away. But usually the delayed message is coming from an email server outside our office and our control.
-----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, September 02, 2011 12:21 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Email Problem I have one user, a sales manager, who occasionally has problems sending email to a large number of people. The email goes out fine, but then 48 hours or so later he gets a message that the email he sent out to all those people was "delayed." Not every time, just some of the time. Outlook 2007 (I think...could be 2003) and POP3 email for everyone. Not everyone on the sales manager's list is local, in fact almost all are spread out around the country, and when I email the same group of people from my desktop it works without a single glitch. That being said, most of the time his emails go through without a hitch either. Any suggestions where to start looking? This has happened in the past and all I have been able to do is just shrug my shoulders and tell him I was unable to reproduce the problem and if I can't reproduce it, it's darn difficult to troubleshoot.
