a followup to all of this, background:
Freebsd 7.3 + i386 + perl5.10 + IO-Socket-INET6 pm WITHOUT ipv6 in
network stack causes 28 second delays for each DNS lookup.
(rbl, a, mx, rdns, ptr, spf, dkim). cause a huge backlog of email.
removing IO-Socket-INET6 fixes this.
On freebsd ports, IO-Socket-INET6 was listed as a dependency, and, prior
to freebsd 7.3 it didn't cause any problems on non INET6 enabled systems.
Also, freebsd amd64 7.3 systems did not experience the problems.
A patch has been sent to maintainer of amavisd-new for freebsd, but if
you reached this email archive by googling for problems that include
SpamAssassin delays with 'dbg: dns: no ipv6' in the debug output, then
you could remove the INET6 perl module:
pkg_delete -f p5-IO-Socket-INET6\*
Mark: any idea why we asked for the IO-Socket-INET6 perl module to be a
dependency on amavisd-new? did it do something 'better' then the
IO-Socket pm that is used as a fallback?
