qmail-smtp problem

[Tore Micaelsen]

Hi there!   Have a strange problem with qmail-smtpd.. when i use pine to send a mail from my mailserver..it stands for a long time waiting before it sends the mail, same when i telnet to port 25 from the mailserver to the mailserver...it takes a while before the "220 hostname ESMTP" comes up..   But if i send or telnet from another host it goes right away...   Anyone have a pointer what might be wrong?   Tore
