I wouldn't change that spamdyke setting unless you know for sure that's a problem. It shouldn't be.

Use 'dig' command to diagnose dns resolver. It will give you timings.

I use the pdns-resolver package. The qt-install-dns-resolver script should work getting that set up.

Is the problem persistent? Sometimes clamav scanning can take a moment, especially if it's just starting up.

Occasionally submissions take a while for me too, like 10-15 seconds perhaps. They eventually go through, and I haven't been concerned enough about it to try diagnosing any possible problem. My QMTs have been like that from day one (2006). Does anyone else see this behavior?

Thanks.

Look for spamdykes early talker setting. That sounds like a value that one would reduce from 5 to 1 ;-)

This is intentional. Clients should be configured to use STARTTLS. If that's not possible, they should use SSL. If that's not possible they can use an encrypted password, but support for that will probably be deprecated in the future, as encrypted passwords require passwords to be store in clear text, which isn't exactly secure either.
Thanks Eric,

Wow , I have the red face -- i just need to change the client.

Yes if I change my client -- then it works.
I was "confused by the matter that my Old ( current qmt mail server ) is of such vintage that one does not use TLS.

I do see one oddity

while it is working sending & recieveng.
When I frist go to use ... it can time out with
"
Sending of message failed.
The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server mailhost.data-wranglers.com <http://mailhost.data-wranglers.com> timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.
"
but -- then will be just fine , quick as one would expect.

I am wondering If I have some sort of php time thing ...
I vaugely recall some some mentioning a time out in a conf --- which has a default of 5 but they set theirs to 1

and or

DNS

specifically running bind or
djbdns resolver <http://thedjbway.b0llix.net/djbdns/dnscache.html>

I am looking at
https://github.com/QMailToaster/qmailtoaster-util/blob/master/qt-install-dns-resolver
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg35600.html


what can I look at or test to see if this is my  issue?

Thanks much - i do appreciate the wisdom
