No more so than an email with delivery receipts returned, or if you
have your own mail server you can see that it's been accepted by the

you that some paper has been spat out at the other end and dropped on
the floor!

Given the choice with some urgent stuff, I know how I'd send it, email is a
wonderful thing when used properly and not preverted by Ms's mail clients or
its users, but it's rarely instananeous, particularly when going through
company email servers. As for acknowleged delivery from the recepient: most
people don't seem to, and as for servers in can be stuck in the mail spool
undelivered for as long as it takes.
