If your emails are taking a long time to send or remain in the mail queue, possible reasons include:
Common causes:
- Server overload or maintenance
- Greylisting by recipient servers
- Spam filters delaying delivery
- Incorrect DNS settings (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
What you can do:
- Wait a short time as greylisting typically delays but doesn’t block mail
- Check your DNS records for proper email authentication
- Contact Akashi Hosting support to verify server status
If delays persist, open a support ticket with details and we’ll investigate.
