Do you have ParaDNS::XS installed? If not, try installing it. It's generally likely to be better than plain ParaDNS (and will be used automatically if it's installed).
There is no ParaDNS::XS on cpan... At least nothing returned for... http://search.cpan.org/search?query=paradns&mode=all Unsure what this has to do with setting a list of servers for ParaDNS to query. Whether pure perl or XS, likely there still has to be a set of servers to query. The fix I'm using right now is a slight patch to Qpsmtpd/PollServer.pm which simply gives ParaDNS a list of servers to check... my @nameservers = qw/127.0.0.1 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4/; my $obj = ParaDNS->new( nameservers => \@nameservers, finished => sub { $self->continue_read(); $self->run_hooks("connect"); }, # NB: Setting remote_info to the same as remote_host callback => sub { $conn->remote_info($conn->remote_host($_[0])); }, host => $ip, ); This works like a charm. Reading through the ParaDNS code, it's unclear to me how qpsmtpd can work at all without a list of servers for ParaDNS to query.
