delay in receiving email in my hotmail inbox both on the computer and iPhone

There is a significant delay receiving email into my hotmail inbox both on my computer and on my iPhone. I have tested sending messages to myself as well as asked others to send me emails and they do not pop up into my inbox for 10 to 20 minutes. There is not a delay sending e-mail to my gmail account or a mac account however.

Why is there a several hour delay in getting emails from another account?

Up until a couple of weeks ago I would instantly get emails from another account. Its work related so quite important to me. However now, there is a delay of several hours. It started off as a 24 hour delay so I deleted the account and set it up again. It improved, but there is still a big delay. Can anyone indicate as to why this has happened and how to rectify it? I have been in touch with the service provider of the other account and everything there is working as it should. They said it was a problem at the receiving end. Thank you....

Delay in receiving Outlook messages

I will get an Exchange email on my iPhone a couple of minutes before it appears in Outlook on my Mac.  Why would it take longer to receive in Outlook 2011.  I never had that problem when I used Outlook 2010 for Windows.  The messages are received simultaneously.
