[EML2.11] My E-mails are getting delayed - what is causing this?

If emails are arriving into your mailbox late, then please ensure that it's not full - if it is, then new mail can only be delivered as old mail is removed. 

Delays to email being sent is usually the result of external delivery issues, such as remote servers being offline or mailboxes being full - please contact the recipient to resolve this issue with their ISP.
