qmail-pop3d problems

[Shawn P. Stanley]

Hi,   I'm new to qmail (I just installed it today), and everything works great except qmail-pop3d.  I installed the binaries from the latest RPMs instead of building the binaries myself.   I'm running RedHat 6.0.  When I start qmail-pop3d (/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3d.init start), I get a "Hard error" message followed by a successful start.  I traced it to the dnsfq command, which seems to give "Hard error" in response to anything entered as a parameter.  Broken?  How do I get dnsfq to work without reporting an error?   After hard-coding my host name to bypass dnsfq, starting (and stopping) qmail-pop3d worked without complaint.  However, when checking mail, my e-mail client (Outlook Express 5) sits there after connecting for a very long time before the mail is actually checked.  The mail is checked successfully and everything seems to work fine except for the very long delay.  What could be taking so long?
