Hello, I have recently spun up a Postfix server that is currently in a testing phase. It is currently not being used at the moment - so there is zero load on this server.
I am actively using Postfix 2.11, SpamAssassin 3.3.1 and Dovecot 2.0.9 for POP3. When I try sending a basic test e-mail through PowerShell using my Postfix box as the SMTP server - I'm seeing 20-40+ second delays in the /var/log/maillog per e-mail. Here is what I see in the logs: Mar 12 07:59:36 postfix/smtpd[21189]: connect from unknown[10.1.10.45] Mar 12 07:59:36 postfix/smtpd[21189]: 2E69C1E0203: client=unknown[10.1.10.45] Mar 12 07:59:36 postfix/cleanup[21191]: 2E69C1E0203: message-id=<> Mar 12 07:59:36 postfix/qmgr[20944]: 2E69C1E0203: from=<me@workdomain>, size=414, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Mar 12 07:59:36 spamd[15544]: spamd: connection from localhost [127.0.0.1] at port 56378 Mar 12 07:59:36 spamd[15544]: spamd: setuid to spamfilter succeeded Mar 12 07:59:36 spamd[15544]: spamd: processing message (unknown) for spamfilter:5001 Mar 12 07:59:36 spamd[15544]: spamd: clean message (-0.9/5.0) for spamfilter:5001 in 0.1 seconds, 439 bytes.

Is the above normal? Or is there something I can tweak to have these go out quicker? I'm completely open to suggestions.
