Shows the time lag between submission and delivery on an email to listserv

On 30-DEC-2013 just before midnight (GMT -6) I sent out emails to javafx@netcat.netbeans.org and also commented on Bug 239860

The emails were spooled but not sent for some twelve-plus hours.

This also happened on a number of occasions during NetCAT 7.4

This Bug is to suggest that some ADDITIONAL measures be taken to improve reliability of these systems, particularly during sanity checking where there is a small window of time in which to respond to such communications.

Marco, do you have an explanation for such a delay? Thanks for your help!
Comment 4 Marco Walther 2014-02-05 19:57:26 UTC
In the two attached headers, the time is lost between the Oracle outbound MTAs and the Yahoo inbound MTAs:-( But that's all I can say. I have no more insight into what's going on there:-(

Jiri, iff you want to try, ask the friendly email support group for help. I got pretty much taken out of the loop on email delivery.
