[thelist] Slow E-mail Services

Hello Experts,
This question is not really on-topic but I need an answer very badly.
Why some e-mail services always deliver e-mails very slowly? For
example, if you have a Yahoo! Mail address then your e-mail will be
delivered by Yahoo! to the recipient after 10 to 30 minutes while if you
use Hotmail, same task will be accomplished with in matter of some
seconds. Now I am using HotPOP address. It delivers e-mail in 2 to 4
hours. It is not good for very important e-mails. Sometimes, we need
them to be delivered in not more than some minutes. I have another
address at SoftHome.Net. Mails from this address are delivered in less
than a minute.
Why such differences occur? Can somebody explain it?

<tip type="Dynamic Effects with JavaScript" author="Syed Zeeshan

If you want to add some dynamic effects to a piece of text on a web page
with JavaScript then you must always put your JS after that text, which
is going to be handled dynamically. Otherwise, the browser will load the
JS before text and will search for the text when there is actually no
text because the text will not be loaded yet. This will cause a
JavaScript error.

Thank you,
