Hello,
we are testing a firewall setup at the moment and see the strange behaviour that
connections from inside to an outside mailserver take about 30 seconds to
initiate while the connection to port 25 of an outside proxy machine that
forwards the requests to the outside mailserver is fast.
That's why we assume it's not a problem of the firewall but that qmail handles
the connections differently. But I don't see a reason for this.
Any clues?
The firewall is a nokia box with checkpoint FW1 (newest version) and the
mailserver is a sun ultra1 running qmail-1.03.
Thanks for any hints,
Antje
