Re: How long does it take to receive the form emailed results?

It should take seconds to maybe a few minutes, depending on your mail host's
setup.
If it takes 2-3 days, then your mail host has a serious problem.

You need to contact the web host / mail host and talk with them.

How often does your email client, such as Outlook Express, poll the server for new email??
I have mine set to every 5 minutes.

Well, most likely their client isn't set to poll every 2 or 3 days ;-)

You said you were receiving the email, but 2-3 days later.

It that's the case, it has Nothing to do with you and your form. There is a
problem with mail delivery somewhere. This is an ISP / Mail service
provider issue.
