The most common way to speed up email delays or slow emails is to add faster open DNS resolvers.
These are two main ones:
Google:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
Cisco:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
We suggest using one from each in any order. For example:
Modify /etc/resolv.conf and before any nameserver line, add
nameserver 208.67.222.222nameserver 8.8.8.8
This example is only for VPS and dedicated servers.
If you have a cPanel account, it's likely the server is running spam filters for incoming and outgoing which is causing slight email delays. You can also add your email to the receiving email allow list or contacts. This will allow it to receive emails faster.
We're always trying new ways to have extremely fast email. If you have an issue at Web Host Pro, please let us know and we'll go through everything to make sure it's sent fast.
