I sent myself a test email from the forum a couple hours ago - anyone know how long it takes for those to get sent?

Emails to myself typically take about a day and based on what other people tell me that they are sending to me, about the same for those also and in some cases much longer than this.  Email response times  will vary depending upon who your ISP is and what security and spam safeguards they have setup.  In my case, there is absolutely zero spam being received so there’s no telling what email is being sent to me that I should be receiving and don’t.  By the same token, I also have difficulty in sending replies for the same reason and especially to yahoo accounts.  There are some servers out there that will not accept anything from my server at all and this is security on their end stopping the email transfer.

Typically an email should take no more than a minute to send/receive.  There must be something with the Forum because I still don't have my test from yesterday afternoon, and I did verify that my email was correct in the control panel.
