Thinking about it. Also quite possible that the system could only handle so many messages a second.
But regardless of excuses it should never take that long to send that message. You are going to have people with PTSD for years over this.
I wished the state would be sued by every single person in the state -- I am sure than both the guy who clicked the link and the UI would be gone presto. Probably some sovereign immunity that stops that though.
