Then you usually have better luck than did this recent message via AOL:

It was received by AOL at 07:26 A.M. (from the msg I.D.).  It wasn't
even time-stamped until when it was sent out 11:45 A.M.  Once there,
AlbanyNet got it to me immediately.

And that's probably fine for many users.  It's important to know,
however, that AOL does frequently delay E-mail for many hours and that
there are other choices for those who want faster E-mail service.
