Maximum time to wait for a test message

This is the time our monitoring agent will wait before raising an error about the message not being delivered. Normally the WebSitePulse.com monitoring agent will connect to your POP3 server every 30 seconds and will check whether the message sent during the first step of the email transaction has been received. If the message arrives on time it will be deleted from the server, otherwise if the message is not found until the time limit expires an alert condition will be raised and alerts will be sent accordingly.
