I am using mxroute they offer very cheap price for unlimited host unlimited mail count 30gb ( 3 years 30$ I think) . but recently it is having huge delays over 30mins . What are your gurantantee at such cheap rates? How you going to scale? Exiting most mail sever aren't really scalable.

Mxroute is probably dealing with that due to large queue volumes and insufficient resources. We are focused on providing fast delivery, however any real mail admin would know that a guarantee is not possible with the way SMTP is right now.

  Yeah I have good deal of experience building email servers and also several application based upon SMTP. SMTP and most Mail daemons themselves are the problem.

    Yea it's so unfortunate the way things turned out. The internet was a fairy-tale land back when these protocols were made. If the server sent a 200, it meant it was delivered, guaranteed. Now it's all smoke and mirrors.

  We (MXroute) maintain low queues (high queues set off alarms, literally). Funny detail, I actually have our combined mail queues as a widget on my phone: https://files.freesocial.co/f.php?h=0fyHTzMz&p=1 https://files.freesocial.co/f.php?h=0fyHTzMz&p=1 (don’t judge me, I like iOS this week) We have excessive resources as well as our own IP ranges. Any delays are most likely related to someone else. Can’t send someone email faster than their mail server accepts it. Happy to answer a support ticket about it but all of our mail queues are human audited every few hours. Best wishes for you and your startup, we need more good people out here. Edit: There is one exception being one older server that is experiencing a bug specific to cPanel, which is mitigated presently with a final resolution in progress. That’s just sysadmin stuff.

Feel free to open a support ticket about that and request that I evaluate any such 30 minute delays. If it’s the Friday server and you’re referring to inbound, mitigation has been applied while I work on the long term fix.
