**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 4.4.4  
My PHP version is: 7.4

**Your problem**  
My problem is:

We sent emails from our system on November 11, 2022, that were received by guests Dec 1 2022.  
Mautic shows that the mail is sent on November 11, 2022.

Is Mautic delays the actual delivery time/date? (20 days late?)

Could you please help me with this?

Thanks

Hello Joey,

Thanks for your reply.

Below is the cron file I have setup and configured all the required mautic configurations into it (mautic:emails:send also).

Cronjob:  
\*/15 \* \* \* \* php /var/www/html/mautic-rc/crons/mautic\_crons\_prod.php \>\> /dev/null 2\>&1

The issue is happening after Mautic 4.4.4 upgarde , before that all the email related things working good with the same cronjob setup and configurations.

Thanks

Hi, this is great, but we don’t know what’s in that php.  
It’s a custom script
