outgoing email sloooow

Friends--

 

For about the last 6 months or so, my outgoing email on comcast has been slow.

 

Symptom: When I send an email, it tells me it is connecting to comcast, then connected, and then it takes 30 seconds to actually send. This time lapse is about 2/3 of the time. Sometimes, as it did before this problem, it sends immediately. Sometimes it takes longer.

 

My system: Production environment. Thunderbird 68.10.00 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 18.04. Settings: smtp.comcast.net port 587, starttls. I know other people with different email clients and operating systems are having the same issue.

 

A few years ago, I had a similar situation, posted here about it, a comcast employee replied, and then the issue stopped about two days later.

 

Please perform your magic again!
