When testing my smtp connection I get a timeout after 16 seconds. using telnet I will finally get a connected after more than 16 seconds. I used to get a connection right away.
Please help me to troubleshoot this. The server is not loaded at all! DNS servers are responsive so I am at a loss to what could be causing this. Here are some warning logs that may help: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:49:54 mail postfix/smtpd[19317]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:49:54 mail postfix/smtpd[19317]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:49:55 mail postfix/smtpd[20194]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:49:55 mail postfix/smtpd[20194]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:49:55 mail postfix/smtpd[20247]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:49:55 mail postfix/smtpd[20247]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:49:58 mail postfix/smtpd[20248]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:49:58 mail postfix/smtpd[20248]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:50:00 mail postfix/smtpd[20249]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:50:00 mail postfix/smtpd[20249]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:50:07 mail postfix/smtpd[18310]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: can't read SMFIC_OPTNEG reply packet header: Connection timed out Nov 21 01:50:07 mail postfix/smtpd[18310]: warning: milter inet:10.0.0.26:8092: read error in initial handshake Nov 21 01:50:11 mail postfix/smtpd[20228]: warning: 123.28.208.235: address not listed for hostname localhost
