RE: Qmail SMTP timing out.

I had a similar problem.  Without going into the details, mine was caused by
the proxy dropping the connection.  Have you tried snoop to watch the
packets  spray to test for errors with netstat?

Just a thought...

Server is most likely unable to do a reverse DNS lookup on those clients.

 Qmail has been working perfectly up until yesterday. What I did was:
 
 echo 10485760  /var/qmail/control/databytes and restarted qmail.
 
 While this is nothing major, ever since yesterday _some_ clients have been
 reporting timeouts on sending emails.
 
 I telnet from the clients machine to port 25 of the mail server and I get
 nothing. Whereas if I telnet locally to port 25 I get:

 It suggests to be a resolving issue. But I haven't changed anything else
 except for databytes.

How can I tell it not to reverse lookup 192.168.*

I don't know why it has just started doing this. Obviously someone has
changed something I'm not aware of.
