Re: Sendmail email delays

2008-08-18 Thread Tom Stuart

Giorgos thank you for your response and assistance once again. I have
additional details below I hope that will allow use to further locate
the issue.

localhost is not resolved via dns but instead using /etc/hosts file.
firewall-1# getent hosts
::1   localhost  localhost.xxx.com
127.0.0.1 localhost  localhost.xxx.com firewall-1.xxx.com firewall-1

firewall-1#  fgrep sendmail_ /etc/rc.conf
sendmail_enable="NO"
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
sendmail_submit_enable="YES"
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="YES"

firewall-1# fgrep DirectSubmissionModifiers /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
/etc/mail/submit.cf
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf:#O DirectSubmissionModifiers
/etc/mail/submit.cf:#O DirectSubmissionModifiers

Thanks once again.

This part means that Sendmail, for some reason, failed to resolve one
of the addresses involved.  Are you using DNS to resolve `localhost'?
Maybe that's why it times out, and it queues the message until the next
time the queue runner wakes up...

Two other interesting bits of information that ay help us find out
what's going on are:

  (1) Your sendmail_xxx options in /etc/rc.conf:

# fgrep sendmail_ /etc/rc.conf

  (2) The value of `DirectSubmissionModifiers' in sendmail.cf and
  submit.cf:

# fgrep DirectSubmissionModifiers /etc/mail/sendmail.cf \
  /etc/mail/submit.cf

Check your sendmail options in /etc/rc.conf and if you don't have any 
there, check the defaults.  Usually you are running two versions of 
sendmail.  Check the sendmail flags you are using for something like 
-q5m.  If you see this, try changing the value and see if that effects your 
delivery time.

There is a .forward file in /root to forward root's mail to

I have the smarthost "DS" parameter in

Have you tried changing the alias for root to the forwarded address in 
/etc/mail/aliases?  You can make the change there and rebuild the aliases file.

mail it is still delayed. I will post some of the maillog in hopes of

Hmmm.  Then this is probably the problem...

If the remote server is an Exchange system, I am not sure if using it as
an MSP in `submit.mc' is supposed to work.

Try resetting the `msp' value in `submit.mc' to:

FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]')dnl

and set `SMART_HOST' in `firewall-1.xxx.com.mc' (not in the
`firewall-1.xxx.com.submit.mc' file):

define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.xxx.com')

Then you should enable the `submit' and `msp_queue' sendmail processes
in `/etc/rc.conf' too:

sendmail_enable="NO"
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
sendmail_submit_enable="YES"
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="YES"

It usually helps to see what changes you have made to `sendmail.mc' from
the stock FreeBSD version.  Can you post diff output from the following?

# cd /etc/mail
# diff -c freebsd.mc `hostname`.mc

I have tried doing the forwarding via /etc/mail/aliases and it worked
identically as it was with the /root/.forward. The mail does go through but
gets delayed 5+ minutes, however when I send mail interactively using mailx
or mail commands the receiving mailserver receives the message instantly.

I'd also like to add that if I restart sendmail via /etc/rc.d/sendmail
restart the mail gets instantly received also...Thanks for the help thus far

I think its important to know these details:

MST 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FIREWALL-1  i386

There is a .forward file in /root to forward root's mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is to be sent via smarthost.

I have the smarthost "DS" parameter in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf configured to
use DSsmtp.xxx.com

/etc/hosts contains
localhost 127.0.0.1 firewall-1 firewall-1.xxx.com
smtp.xxx.com 10.0.0.2


Have you tried changing the alias for root to the forwarded address in 
/etc/mail/aliases?  You can make the change there and rebuild the aliases file.

Sendmail email delays

2008-08-15 Thread Tom Stuart

I've been having trouble sending email that was sent via a process(swatch).
I can send emails fine via command-line and receive immediately to the
forwarded address. However when sent via swatch it can take 5-10 minutes.
These entries appear in /var/log/mailllog. Note this is all relating to the
same email and notice the 11 minute delay. Thanks in advance for any help.

I think its important to know these details:
firewall-1# uname -a
FreeBSD firewall-1.xxx.com 7.0-RC1 FreeBSD 7.0-RC1 #2: Tue Feb  5 07:10:05
MST 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FIREWALL-1  i386

There is a .forward file in /root to forward root's mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is to be sent via smarthost.

I have the smarthost "DS" parameter in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf configured to
use DSsmtp.xxx.com

/etc/hosts contains
localhost 127.0.0.1 firewall-1 firewall-1.xxx.com
smtp.xxx.com 10.0.0.2
