In the last few days, I have noticed a delay in the process of sending
a message. It seems there is a delay until the actual Auth part of
the sending process starts.
Instead of it being more/less instantaneous, as usual, it may take a
second or so for the client to deliver the mail to the smtp
Don,
This is something primarily related to IMail unless you have excessive
CPU or disk utilization caused by Declude. Declude doesn't even get
launched until after the AUTH and the entire message has been received
by the server. SMTP will slow down when there is excessive CPU or disk
