Hi,
we saw similar problems when running QMAIL on a host in a DMZ. The reason
was that TCPENV tries to get the IDENT information from the remote system
thru the FIREWALL. However, this protocol was blocked. The IDENT request
finally dies out an QMAIL gets on going after a longer period of time
(exactly 30 seconds).
Disable the IDENT service in your INETD on the QMAIL host.
Cheers.
eh.
