I have customers here in the building that host domains with us that come visit me when there is a fifteen minute delay in their email since there are deals with tens of thousands of dollars relying on the speed of email, too late and someone else has the deal. Unless you know about their businees, you wouldn't know how critical email delivery is for them, and I know it is a bad idea to rely on email to this extent, but try to convice businesses that.

Was: Feature request: no displayable text in body no displayable text in body They would be delayed only on the first day. Ever after they would be passed normally because they would be in the list. Often delays such as this are introduced randomly in email systems due simply to system loads or perhaps the chance that the poor sap on the receiving end was buried in unplanned meetings the entire afternoon (been there more than once? I have)... so, most of the time nobody would notice - and somebody new would have no immediate expectations regarding the speed of response so they would be even less likely to notice. Once their first message went through everything would work "at wire speed" so to speak. _M PS: I'm sure that certain "tweaks" could easily be added to the process to help also... such as anything explicitly white-listed passing through immediately and so forth. An example might be if a corp used their product names and IDs in special rules in Message Sniffer, then that rule group's code might be used to white-rule any messages to the sales department for immediate transit. --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
