Hey everyone I just had a quick question. I just finished writing a very very simple mail client (litterally all it does is send msg's). I was wondering, sometimes when I send mail it goes really quick and appears almost instantly on the receiving server however sometimes it sends quickly and takes longer (about 45 secs) to appear on the server. I'm not complaining about the time it's not important just curious as to why it might do that. Any thoughts?

-Test it with different sized email which doesn't seem to have any impact on it.
