Hello, I had exactly this problem (30sec delay)- caused by a missing parameter at xinetd/inetd configuration on the mail server. This occures due to the mail server (in my case qmail) doing a dns request which is finally timed out after 30 secs. I added the "-Rt0" parameter to the smtp settings in inetd configuration and everything was immediately fine. -- Regards, Albrecht ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.0.32.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
