Applies to:

Oracle Communications Messaging Server - Version 5.2.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Purpose

When you have a performance problem which you might summarize as "Slowness Receiving Mail" or "Slowness Sending Mail", the first thing support will need to be able to begin debugging the problem is a precise description of the problem. This is one of those areas where it often seems painfully obvious to the person with the problem, but not so to the person they are trying to describe it to.
