Because the program relies on the internet connection with varying speeds, it is important to set the timeout parameter, which will give the ability to decide how long should the program wait for a response from the e-mail servers, till it drops the connection. Use the following control  from the main tool bar to set the timeout value.
The Fast E-Delivery Engine can send messages directly to the recipient’s e-mail server or through an SMTP server like many other e-mail clients. This option can be changed in the program settings connection page. For more information, please see the settings chapter.
