It's not really possible to know exactly what is wrong from these somewhat vague details, but I suggest looking at your DNS settings, particularly for the hosts running sendmail. As a quick guess: Sendmail is very picky about DNS and if you are using any host names that don't resolve, it can take longer than it would otherwise. -- Jonathan Billings <[email protected]> -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
