Qmail

[network_4]

Hi.. I have a qmail server from 2 -3 days i am facing an issue that when i am doing telnet on server's port 25 i.e. telnet 0 25 then its giving me welcome note after around 1 minute but it should give me at same time.. actually issue is when i am sending mails its taking time to reach to server i.e. for around 1 minute its there in outbox, so i checked for telnet for localhost and issue seems with qmail. So can any one guide me what could be the issue and how we can resolve this.

One of the problem may be bad/incorrect DNS/host resolution. If this is ok check for parameters in qmail start scripts. If you start qmail from xinetd check '/etc/xinetd.d/smtp*' file and add some arguments "-Rt0" at first place in server_args section. These will skip verification checks intended to collect more information for security and auditing purposes.
