Forum - Activation Mail

Post by Fligh »

Dunno if it's a bug at all or programmed that way, but my activation mail for this forum needed about half an hour to reach me.
Is's a bit annoying if you register yourself to post something that's important for you, and you have to wait half an hour or even longer to get activated.

Is the server overwrought or did you program this delay?

You should post the full message headers. Might want to blank out any personal info like your IP, but these headers would show us exactly where the mail was held up.

Yeah, without knowing more about what route the email took, there's no way to know where the slow down is.

Normal behavior (almost spelled that with a "u"). Also unrelated.
