I am trying to find a way to "speed" up sendmail going out of my box. I am setting SMART_HOST. Dont get me wrong email does go out it just takes like 3-4 minutes to get there. When I do "mail xxxx at y.com" and send it the /var/log/maillog file shows the connection and shows the relay as [127.0.0.1]. Then it just SITS there for a long time. Then it picks up the mail and delivers it. No errors are show, no timeouts etc... My box does not have an MX record as I am behind the firewall (192.168.1.X). I have set the /etc/sysconfig/sendmail QUEUE=1m but that does not seem to help either. There is nothing else happening on my box so that is not slowing anything down. I've done some google'ing, some playing and nothing has helped. I tried adding the service.switch to sendmail.mc, I tried temporarily taking out dns from nsswitch.conf - and nothing seemed to help. How can I get emails exiting my box faster. Jerry
