Thanx list, >From what I can see now, there is a DNS problem. When I try to send mail I get a Name Server timeout. I better check with the network manager.
Thanx. In your maillog, did you see the message delivery attempt time stamp? Was it immediate? Were there any notices of "host not found" or the like? Generally, sendmail is going to send each message right away unless told to queue. It would sound like a DNS issue were it not for the fact that it's a 2 hour delay. You can alway test that, though, by adding a host entry for your Exchange box. <<JAV>> ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Beast <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri, 03 Jan 2003 19:35:55 Subject: RE: SendMail & Exchange > At 01:21 PM 1/3/2003 +0100, you wrote: > >Hi, > >Thanx for the reply, I checked the logfiles and the delays where all around > >2 ours and 10 minutes. > >Have you any idea what I can do about it? > > I'm never use sendmail, but this may help. > > Did you use smart relay or use dns to deliver mails? > > from linux machine, try to send mail with: > mailx -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > and see the output. > You may also check the logs, usualy sendmail was depends hevily on > dns, so make sure youre setup/user correct dns server. > > > > >Check the maillog to see how long it takes for sendmail to deliver to the > >Exchange box.
