Hi,

When delivering remotely, it seems that mails hop from the spool 
directory to the outgoing directory after some time, then finally leave 
the outgoing directory after even more time.
Some of my messages never seem to leave at all (possibly DNS issues)

I was wondering if there was:
a) a way to speed this process up (which parameters)
b) a way to route immediately to another nominated SMTP server.


Here's the bit of my config I think is relevent, but the whole darn 
thing is attactched

Thanks for any help.

    REQUIRED

    Please fill the DNSservers.server tag with the value of your DNS.

    <dnsServer>
        <servers>
            <server> [hear goes your dns] </server>
        </servers>
    </dnsServer>

    You can set as many dns as you want.

    OPTIONAL, but very important

    You should probably fill in the following settings:

    <postmaster> [the email address to use as your postmaster] </postmaster>

    <servernames>
        <servername> [a domain name for this server to handle] </servername>
        <servername> [another domain name to handle] </servername>
    </servernames>

    <account login="root" password="[my password]"/>
    Note that you cannot leave a blank password.  If the password is blank, the admin account is disabled.

    Anti-relay mailet: Add your network address here, e.g. "RemoteAddrNotInNetwork=127.0.0.1, abc.de.*"
   <processor name="transport">
       <mailet match="RemoteAddrNotInNetwork=127.0.0.1" class="ToProcessor">


    OPTIONAL, and interesting

    For TLS support on POP3 or RemoteManager, enable the TLS Listener in AVALON.conf.xml, then uncomment
    the <useTLS>TRUE</useTLS> elements for the appropriate protocol/ service. Please check
    docs/usingTLS.html for requirements.


    For LDAP support for users, change the  <userRepository> element from:
    <userRepository>file://../var/users/ </userRepository> to: <userRepository>ldap </userRepository>
    then set the parameteers for your LDAP server.  Please check docs/usingLDAP.html for requirements.
