In examining logs generated while trying to figure out why dnsreport.com could not contact my mail servers, I got to wondering why SIMS takes so long to respond to HELO. From one of my server logs:
14:54:03 4 SMTP-698([24.240.171.218]) Input Line: HELO dnsreport.com\r 14:54:03 5 SMTP-698([24.240.171.218]) *Status=21 14:54:03 4 SMTP-698(dnsreport.com) Looking for dnsreport.com 14:54:18 3 SMTP-698(dnsreport.com) Failed to verify.
