I have a 0.44.2 installation on a RH8.0 with webmail, imap, pop3 and a few
more modules.

My users, and myself, have no problem using pop3, imap and webmail, but when
sending mail via SMTP I got a long delay before the mail actually is
recieved by courier.

My LAN has no firewall. I have verified the DNS setup, including the reverse
lookup, and can not find any obvious problem.

I used tcpdump to watch the traffic between the mailserver, the client and
the DNS.

I can see that it takes approx 2 sec to forkl a new process, do the ident
and the DNS lookup, but then nothing happend for about 2 minutes. This is as
far as I understand before the mailserver respond with its ID_string and is
ready to recieve the HELO ?

If I connect to port 25 via telnet I got exactly the same behaviour. From
where the tcp-session is established (looking with netstat) until the
mailserver print something in my telnet window it takes more than 2 minutes.

Can some one direct me to where to look for the problem and possibly give
some good advice ?
