I received 2 emails from two different external domains that came in at 6:46pm and 7:02pm. When you open the emails, the time stamps are 2:14pm and 1:53pm on the details. What causes a delay in delivery from two different sources? My email server would have had to of been down and these messages "retried" later but there is nothing that indicates my server or internet connection was down for 21 minutes plus. I reveiwed the logs and it looks like we had internet connectivity at those times. It has the symptom we were down and then maybe they retried on their end. Any suggestions as to how to trouble shoot these types of issues?
Do you use spam filtering in front of Exchange sever? Sometimes, the delayed messages are casued by the big volume of messages being processed by spam filtering system or the time when the messages were released from filtering system.
