AFAIK you should have some kind of MTA on your system even if you don't use it yourself, as some programs use it. Correct me if I'm wrong. I seem to remember having a similar slow-startup issue which was fixed by running dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config (as root), and answering "No" to the final rather confusing question about Dial-on-demand. This stops exim4 from doing DNS lookups at boot. Might help... John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
