Hi. I don't know who the FAQ maintainer is (Sam? someone else?),
but I have a couple more entries for the FAQ.
Thanks to Mr. Sam for this one. I think it belongs in the ESMTP
section, but feel free to correct me.
--------------
Q. Why are my e-mails taking so long to send?
If the delay is mostly in the initial connection, check for:
- A dead DNS server listed in /etc/resolv.conf
- That reverse DNS works on the connecting IP addresses
- A misbehaving firewall that's dropping identd packets
Should you decide that you want to turn off the reverse DNS or identd
checks, using the following in the esmtpd configuration file:
TCPDOPTS="-nodnslookup -noidentlookup"
--------------
Towards the end of the section on Sendmail-style virtual domains,
you might want to add the following:
--------------
To do something along the lines of the sendmail hosting
@domain.com: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
You will need to set the alias to:
@domain.com: user
And then set up a /home/user/.courier-default file containing
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
--------------
Also, might it not be useful to put the two questions on virtual
hosting together? I only noticed the second one now, and would have
assumed that I had Read The Fine Manual without noticing the second if I
had had a question.
Thanks all,
