I finally have sendmail working fine accept on little problem. I am noticing that it is responding slowing to authenticate. For expample when I telnet in to port 110 It connects to the server and then waits about 13 seconds at: Escape character is '^]'. and then gets to the point I can type in the username and password.

Any ideas on why it is responding a little slow on requests on port 110

Thanks for your help.

Delays are often due to DNS problems. Make sure your name server is working correctly for this host.

Thanks Gerry. It looks like it might be a reverse lookup issue. I will have wait to see when the DNS servers update themselves. -- Bob Barish B.M.T Solutions http://www.bmtsolutions.com 9:41am up 9:07, 4 users, load average: 0.07, 0.08, 0.04
