Minimize delivery failures

I accidently posted this message to the wrong newsgroup, so if you monitor
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork I am sorry?

My company has three buildings with a network connecting them between. One
of the buildings is outside of the country (in the Dominican Republic). I
would like for a program had I have built to be able to communicate with a
web service running in one of the other two buildings. I have started some
basic testing of the reliability of the connection to the DR building by
pinging a server with different buffers sizes (ping -n 100 -l <buffer size>
<server name>). I have noticed smaller buffers are more reliable. So my
question is, can I compress portions of my soap message to minimize the
chance of failed deliveries?

Just off the cuff I would say if you are losing data that is a problem.
Compressing just treats the symptoms. Look into why large buffers
are being corrupted and address that issue.

From what I have been told is the lines in the Dominican Republic are not
that good. I used the ping command to check the reliability of the
connection and it does not look that good. The ping command uses the ICMP
protocol which does not guarantee packet delivery as opposed to the TCP
protocol. I am hoping if I minimize the amount of packets sent then I can
minimize the likelihood of packets being resend. I'm going to use TCP/IP so
I can guarantee message delivery.

The connection might not be at bad. I pinged my web hosting company
(located in the US) which is over a thousand miles from where I am and it
has the same amount of timeouts (10%) as our Dominican Republic connection,
and I have not seen any problems when fetching web pages my web server. I
just never knew that there was so many non-delivered packets over the
internet. I thought with the modern internet we have resolved these issues
a long time ago.

i think i've gotten the wrong idea about the differences between a read receipt and delivery status notificaiton. i was assuming that delivery status notificaiton is a response line from the remote smtp server that would be added to the originatoring smtp server's log file. but that's not it, is it? delivery status notification means an email is generated and sent to the recipient's email box, correct?
