Why does it take 5-10 minutes to receive mail with items bought from guild stores?

I don't think I have seen this in other MMO's but it has always been like this for me when I bought something from guild stores in ESO. I wonder if this is by design? Some sort of mechanism to defend against manipulating the market to quickly?

Mail is fetched from the server in 15-minute intervals and when you change locations."Adapt. or Die."5 -

Oh ok, thanks for the information. I also just found out that logging in and out also does the trick. I take it these are the only ways to make the game get mail faster than 15 minutes intervals? Would be nice if we could just click a button (with say a max interval of 1 minute to prevent spamming).0 -

✭The Mail system is one gripe I have. Essentially if I want anything I just bought I have to teleport out somewhere (often faster than logging out/in).Make PC NA raiding great again!
Down with drama!

✭Current mail system boosts the amount of life in zones. People jumping between wayshrines just to receive emails, appear and disappear. Nothing wrong with this
