Hi. I was having the same problem on my linux system and the -R option
didn't seem to help. What fixed it was adding the -l localhostname argument
which helps qmail resolve the local host name which I think is what's taking
the longest. Actually, when it was happening on my system, it would take
about 2 minutes to send an email, but then it would work fine for 10 minutes
because the hostname resolution was cached. After 10 minutes, it would go
back to the same issue.

try starting tcpserver with the -R option.
