Thank you everyone for your helpful responses. I've narrowed the problem
down further, though it is not solved yet. It does not appear to be
specific to postfix. I've written a simple program with a select
statement that delays 10 seconds when run on any of my own computers,
but when run on the virtual machine hosting my mailserver it returns
immediately. I'm suspecting a vmware related problem, but I don't know
yet...
Accurate time keeping is one of the dirty secrets of virtualization.

Thank you Wietse, I needed something to lighten my day... Perhaps I'm
having an experience of time converging to 0. Now, if I could only get
everything done in that timeframe....
