[closed] how to increase the speed of default mail delivery time (3 posts)

    i'm using godaddy hosting with WordPress Multisite.. I don't have any smtp server so I'm using WP default PHP mailer function for confirmation mail delivery. But it's too slow. It usually takes minimum 20mins to deliver the confirmation mail.

    I have tried to use external(Gmail SMTP) free smtp server for mail delivery but it needs a secure http request, and My hosting doesn't allow me to do that.. So...

    Any suggestion?

    This question has been answered on godaddy.com ( http://community.godaddy.com/groups/web-hosting/forum/topic/php-mail-seems-not-working-or-very-slow/ )

    Apparently they queue the mails to prevent spam and resource abuse which means you should expect delays of up to a few hours ( according to the info found on the link i provided above ).

    Conclusion : you can't do anything about it except maybe change hosts.

    It's not even a multisite issue.
