The mail from you to Klarinet can be delayed for many reasons,
and it depends on the route the mail took. If it had to hop to
another machine before it got to Klarinet, then the other machine
may have gone down (mail can possibly take a different route if
one way is blocked). You may not get notification of problems for
DAYS! There is a way to get acknowledgement from the server that
your mail was received (set klarinet ack) but I don't use it due
the amount of mail clutter I already have on my machines.
