[DM-MUG] slow email MCHSI to DOT MAC?

[Rod Ragner]

I have been having a similar problem for over one month.

This morning, I sent a message from my MediaCom account to my .mac  
account and it has not yet arrived (five hours later).

Last month I had a similar problem, so I sent messages from each of my  
four e-mail account (employer, NetScape, MediaCom, and .mac) to each  
of the other three. All mail was received promptly, with the sole  
exception of the message sent from the MediaCom account to the .mac  
account.

I sent a message to MediaCom about it and they replied that this was a  
known problem, but they had no solution.

Several days later a message was returned to my MediaCom account  
stating that the message could not be delivered.

Another few days later, the allegedly undeliverable message was  
received in my .mac account.

I have no good answer, but sending from any MediaCom account to  
any .mac account should be avoided. Either use a different sending  
account or ask te intended recipient for an alternate account (other  
than their .mac).

Good luck!
