1-2 hours has been typical for me. On Wed, Oct 29, 2025 at 2:34 PM Julian Y Koh via Outages-discussion < outages-discussion@outages.org> wrote:
Hey everyone,
What are people seeing as normal delivery times for messages to the main outages list? I’m regularly getting messages delivered to me up to over an hour after they’ve been sent, which kind of reduces the utility of the list as a notification service that something is up.
Just as an example today, the first message from Nick that was sent at 11:27am Central did not hit our email servers until 12:53pm Central. Rob’s reply that was sent at 12:35pm did not get here until 1:29pm.
Is this expected, or might something else be going on? Maybe it’s just me? Happy to provide headers and whatnot to the admins if it will help.
Thanks!
