MSR63 - seeing some of your replies, I can tell you know your way around IT.
That having been said, bear with me while I ask some questions which may insult your intelligence.
Do I gather correctly - the user is receiving mail on an email system you manage?
1. Were the messages local (to the email server) or did they traverse a bridgehead?
2. If they crossed a public network, is there header information which you reviewed?
3. Does your Internet Service Provider (web site host, DNS host, etc) have provision for Secondary Mail Hosting? If so, what is their retry time?
4. Did all the messages come from the same remote domain?
Thanks.

jveldh - thanks for the recommendation
58sniper - the answer to your question is no.
SteveRoadWarrior - In no way would you be insulting my intelligence. I am a one man team - with alot of responsibilities. Because of this I must fix one issue and on to another quickly -- so I am not an expert on any one area. One day it's VPNs, next day exchange and so forth.
The question you ask are good and most importantly questions I never considered. I am only aware that one of my users had their mail held up for hours and then came flushing in -- this only happened to one user.
I need to take a look at the user's emails during that time and do a little more research on them.
