Yes, this is sort of what I have as well. 9 seconds on the initial connect in my case. That gets the lion's share through. The subsequent deliverys are much more patient.

This problem seems to becoming more and more acute. What I do is the *first* attemt to deliver the mail has a highly-non-compliant define(`confTO_HELO', `1m') define(`confTO_MAIL', `2m') would be safe.... ---Mike
