well...do they understand how email systems work?
if they don,t then you can explain that it could be either end of the process
that caused the delay...or any other server in between (antispam, defangers,etc)
Anyway....if you're bringing a production server down, you should schedule
downtime . If it has to fall during working hours, you can tell everyone to
get a beer @ the pub while you're it. I'm sure one hours delay wont be noticed
then ;)
