If it went via the Australian Postal Service email server then it could have
gotten stuck there! We had a news report here a few months back that stated
that a postcard (the paper variety) had finally reached it's destination in
the UK some 100 *years* after it had been mailed. It seems it had left
Australia only a short time before it reached the UK which meant that it had
been kicking around Australia Post for all that time! If they can do that
with paper mail the mind boggles as to what they could achieve with
electronic mail.
