As far as I know the fact that the DSA is being held back at the MC means that mail isn't getting run through as early as it should knocking evrything back.

dsa mail not being released early enough in the day for processing is causing the problem,late shift cant cope with the amounts at times and do their own outward despatches so it falls to night-shift to catch up but more often than not mail is crash-planned i.e. not walksorted or buddied which will at times mean more ips for delivery offices .earlier network arrivals at mail centres are crucial......if their running late and it does'nt have to be much, there's less time to walksort and the do,s get hit with more ips than they need.sorry folks
