I use Orange broadband and Onetel for email. I have noticed that inbound
emails are taking three days to arrive - what is the problem and how do i fix
it?

If they don't show up in your web based mailbox provided by your ISP either,
it is not an Outlook issue but an issue with your ISP.

You're very lucky. My mail is taking up to 5 days to arrive and never
less than 3 days.
I am sending myself test messages from the Onetel Mailzone website and
still they take the best part of a week to arrive.
This has been going on for the nearly a month now. It's quicker to put
a letter in the postbox than to use Onetel as an ISP.
I can't find where to complain, so I shall just have to blow them out
as it's now affecting my business.

Good Luck

That's the problem with all these new cheepo UK ISP's, they dont have the
infrastructure to support their users.
Theres nothing you can do, other than switch your provider
