Hi,

I am using joomla 1.5.3 and php 5.1.2.

When I send an email via the standard contact forms imbedded in the core joomla installation, I do receive my emails immediately.

When I fill out a chronoform it takes about 20 minutes before I receive the email.

I noticed that chronoforms uses Jutility::sendMail.
The emails via the contact form do use this code :

$mail = JFactory::getMailer();

$mail->addRecipient( $contact->email_to );
$mail->setSender( array( $email, $name ) );
$mail->setSubject( $FromName.': '.$subject );
$mail->setBody( $body );

$sent = $mail->Send();

Can anyone explain why the emails via chronoforms are delivered much slower ? ps: the destination email is not hosted at the hoster of the joomlasite. I use "sendmail" without smtp in the global configuration in joomla.

Hi rthijs,

Jutility::sendmail calls exactly the same code - check it out in utility.php, so that's no the cause of any delay. Are both sending to the same email address?
