Order of Kilopi
It does happen once in a while, something gets stuck in a server, but doesn't get sent through for...years.
I just got an e-mail from an outdoors company regarding my order which is about to ship. What order I wonder? Well, reading more, I saw the shipping date was July 21, 2007!!!! Ok....I think I know what it was now. They sent me a confirmation e-mail, and today (well, 10 hours ago according to gmail) it got here.

The confirmation was dated 21/07/07 and the mail was sent 22/09/09. Sounds like someone typo-ed the entry into the database.

Hmmm... Well, here last week I got a mail a couple of days late, according to the header it was sent on the morning of the 16th, but I got it in the afternoon of the 18th. But your experience seems a bit extreme... Unless someone accidentaly put the send date forward to 21.09.2009(hmmm, that is two 7s replaced by 9s), you were probably lucky to even get it, e-mail sometimes just disappear, you know, but for a server to have it laying for years for no reason seems strange...Originally Posted by tdvance
Of course, stuff like that happens with hard mail too, sometimes stuff that has been forgotten is found a long time later, and is then sent on...
