Delay in sending email to-from localhost in Sendmail
Hi Friends,
I am very much new to sendmail or any other mta. I just installed sendmail 8.14 on my rhel6 machine. I was trying to send email to local user but after entering the message when i press CTRL-D it simply hangs. I also tried sending email via mutt but again mutt also hangs. It sends the email but after taking a quite a long time like 2-3 minutes.
Here are the logs confirming that delay
So could any one suggest what could be the issue. IPTables is not running on the system.
How can i get sendmail to immediately bounce mail when the server on the other side gives a "550 unknown user" SMTP error? Currently, the outbound mail stays in the queue and is retried until our server gives up, some days later. (0 Replies)
