I have a question.

I have a friend who sends me mail from one of the ATT
machines. These machines uses ATT.COM as their gateway.
When I send her mail she gets them in half an hour to
45 minutes (may be an hour at the most). But when she
sends me mail they take 6-7 or even 10 hours to reach
me and they seem to come in lumps. Once somebody sent
me an e-mail from ATT.COM itself and that too took such
a long time. This has been a recent development...couple
of weeks may be..

Does anybody have any idea about why the mail seem to
move fast in one way and so SLOW in the other direction ?

thanks a lot
deeptendu
