Why does it take so long for my iPhone photos to get sent to my e-mail?
So I have pictures from pages in a book, and I sent about 5 of those photos to my e-mail address thinking it would take about 5 minutes max, but it's taking way longer than that where I still have not received them in my e-mail.
It literally takes at least half an hour no matter what server it's on in order for my photos to get sent to my e-mail address. And it's been over 1 hour and the photos are still not in my e-mail inbox. My original server I send it to is yahoo, but I've also tried in the past before to send it to my gmail and mail.com account and no matter the server, it still takes forever to get sent.
Is it possible that the "outgoing" server can be an issue like the email it's getting sent from? Or could the potential size of the image play a factor. And here's an example of what I mean by outgoing where the sent from acct.: jimsm***@gmail.com and the sent to acct: jimsm***@yahoo.com. Would it make a difference if the to and from account servers are the same?
