For some reason, which I cannot fathom, pop3 connections are taking a VERY
long time to process on our qmail/vpopmail machine. I am going to try and
provide as much inormation as possible. If I give too much, I appologize in
advance. If I don;t give you enough, please ask, I am sort of desperate to
solve this and haven't been able to on my own up to this point. (Sorry for
the cross-post, but I'm not sure which is causing the problem)
I am starting the pop3 daemon with:
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -v -R -uvpopmail_uid -gvpopmail_gid 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup pop3.e2grow.com \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &
Here is what appears to be a relevant section of the maillog:

As you can see, it took 2 minutes and 40 seconds to check this one person's
e-mail. I have checked the FAQ and the mailing list archives with little
luck.
I would appreciate any help.
