Thanks!  I do indeed get a hang for a fixed period of time when connecting to the 
ESMTP port.  Thanks for pointing me in the proper direction... now it's just a DNS 
issue.  Thanks again!

I don't know if that's really your problem. The description just sounded
like something I ran into recently: I started seeing 60-second ESMTP
delays waiting on reverse-lookups for machines on the local network.

If you telnet to port 25, do you get the ESMTP greeting immediately, or 
does it hang for a fixed time? If you see it immediately, then you have
some other problem.
