bit too long !== far too long ;)

Well, so here comes /the oddity/

connecting from debian to windows/exchange ~0.5 seconds
connecting from debian to debian/courier ~0.2 (assumed to be somewhere at 0.x seconds)
connecting from windows to debian/courier ~5 seconds
connecting from windows to windows/exchange ~0.5 seconds

Half a second is what I'd expect and is acceptable, but
5 seconds seems to be more serious than an oddity...

Somewhat confused,
