The delay is probably beyond our control. We attempt to send results notifications within minutes of when the results are posted. From that point on, it's up to the Internet and mail queues. The Verizon gateway (which takes emails and turns them into texts) may get backlogged sometimes.
On the pm notifications, do you get them sometimes and not others? Since the ones you missed, have new ones arrived? Can you see any pattern as to when they come through and when they don't?

Re: Problem with text results
I received PMs at 916, 929, 934, 954, and 959. So far, only the one has come through, and that was an hour after it was received. Will see if the others come through as time passes. Haven't received any, but the one from 916 and I got it at about 1017. None have come through out of order, just not coming, but maybe it is a Verizon issue, I dunno.

Re: Problem with text results
Just got the 929 message at 1031...seems pretty reliably an hour behind for some reason
ETA: 934 message received at 1035. 954 message received at 1052. I have to assume that is a Verizon thing or no?

Re: Problem with text results
Verizon bites. I had the same problem with some email addresses from yahoo, but I don't use yahoo for SIM. If I'm on my phone and the results seem slow, I usually just refresh the browser for internet and a bunch of erstwhile lost emails show up. Probably a BB or Verizon issue.
