Of Yahoo!'s hosted email in a half hour period, only 133 in 240 of its probes were answered. Many servers were closed and unavailable. Overall availability ranged from 25 percent to 75 percent; the average availability was 55 percent. The worst of the servers was available only 7 percent of the time."

Yahoo!'s response was:

"Yahoo! Mail treats e-mail delivery as a top priority. We are successfully delivering billions of e-mail messages per day, and in fact, Yahoo! Mail delivers more messages per quarter than the US Postal Service, FedEx and UPS combined in a year. Yahoo! is constantly enhancing technologies and operations in order to deal with the load."
