   Is Spot X a reliable messaging system?

   Why does Spot X take so long to send a message?

   • Email message delivery is far less predictable and generally much slower, ranging from 16 to 30 minutes for each message that you send. The reason is that the SPOT X sends three copies of your message to their mail server for redundancy to make sure that your message is received by their mail server.
