Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Slowness in smtp
Hi,
It seems that if i use port 587 it does not have the slowness issue..
[r...@cp root]# time telnet mail.popular.com.sg 25

Could it still be DNS issue since the slowness does not show up in port 587?
Thanks

Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: Slowness in smtp
Hi,
I tried the following on the mail server itself and i got the reply
immediately.
[r...@mail init.d]# nslookup 122.175.72.62
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address:127.0.0.1#53
Non-authoritative answer:
62.72.175.122.in-addr.arpa name =
Telemedia-AP-dynamic-062.72.175.122.airtelbroadband.in.
Authoritative answers can be found from:
It seems that i have djbdns install rather than BIND for my qmailtoaster.
Can i check how can i configure the forwarders on my caching server? The
mail server setup is by default according to the Qmailtoaster installation
guide.
Thanks
