When I click on the Email link http://email.bmwlt.com/ I get this:
res://ieframe.dll/info_48.png Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage


Most likely causes:

<LI id=causeNotConnected>You are not connected to the Internet. <LI id=causeSiteProblem>The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.
What you can try:

Hey Andy,

I'm still getting emails (yesterday and today) sent from last week. It's very erratic, I can send an email to my bmwlt.com address and it will go right through but another email I sent took almost two days.
I recieved an email from the 24th, yesterday and one from the 30th today?

Yes, that is the way the email system is designed to work. To illustrate the path of an email:

a) sender writes email and hits send
b) The email is being transfered from the senders PC/MAC/workstation to the outgoing mail server
c) Outgoing mail server tries to deliver the email to
c1) Receivers email server OR
c2) Intermediary server
d) if receivers email server cannot be reached (down, off the net, ...) The last server that has the email will try in regular intervals to send the email. The 'problem' now is in that 'regular intervals' because that is something that is being determined by the admin of the server. That can be something like 4hr, or in bigger email servers this can go much higher

Bottom line: The fact that you still receive stored emails is fine, and is exactly the way the system was designed to work.
