This isn't enough to tell which side is causing the misbehavior. I find that slapping a tcpdump(1) on the interface and logging to a file is the simplest way to see what is really happening (eg. tcpdump -w /xxx/logfile -s 1500 -i eth0). Running wireshark() (formerly ethereal()) and using the "follow tcp stream" shows the back and forth conversation. In this case I bet you'll see that gmail is either timing out due to slow replies or packets are getting dropped and gmail is asking for lots of retransmissions and eventually throws in the towel. My gut feel is that the receiver is most likely the villain with either and overloaded CPU and/or lots of slow antispam filters that need to be run. (If you want help setting up the tcpdump or looking at the logs, feel free to send mail to my gmail address. I've tracked down enough mail problems like this that this is very old hat.) -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
