I use fetchmail to download my mail from a POP3 server, and until recently the local smail/in.smtp process that gets that mail from fetchmail would immediately deliver the messages to my mailbox. Now it queues the mail for delivery, but doesn't actually deliver it until some minutes later. If I run 'runq' right after 'fetchmail' then the mail *is* delivered immediately.
So, how can I force smail to deliver the mail immediately again? I've studied all the docs I can find and tried all the smail options that seem to relate, but nothing helps. I'm running fetchmail 4.6.0-1 and smail 3.2.0.101-5 on a fairly current slink system. A slightly-obscured version of my /etc/smail/config file is attached. -- Fred Yankowski [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================ visible_name=XXX.net -domains hostnames=xanadu:XXX.XXX.net:localhost smtp_accept_max=20 smtp_accept_queue=10 rfc1413_query_timeout=15 require_configs -qualify_file -retry_file copying_file=/usr/doc/smail/copyright max_message_size=10M smtp_remote_allow=localnet -smtp_hello_verify
