Would it be possible to say if this performance is sending or receiving mail? Either way, show the `delays='' logging, which reports the time spent in different stages of delivery. The format of the "delays=a/b/c/d" logging is as follows: o a = time from message arrival to last active queue entry o b = time from last active queue entry to connection setup o c = time in connection setup, including DNS, EHLO and STARTTLS o d = time in message transmission > It does not matter if I send via sendmail or SMTP > to localhost with keep-alive. I suspect that your mail sending program is too slow. You can test Postfix raw speed with smtp-source test program, part of the Postfix source bundle. > Below is the output of postconf: postconf -n. No-one will look at a thousand lines of output. Wiets
