Message delivery was delayed up to 30 minutes

Issue
Why was the delivery of a message through Postini delayed for between 1 and 30 minutes? 

Resolution 
Delays of up to 30 minutes are not considered out of the ordinary due to the standard configuration of most mail servers. Due to timeouts and retries at any given point along the delivery path of a message, the message may be delayed anywhere from a minute or two to 30 minutes. 

Check your message to find out where the delay is:

Additional Information 
RFC 1123, section 5.3.2 covers in detail the recommended settings for timeouts at each stage of the SMTP session. The full library of historical RFC memos can be viewed at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs.
