Wow, how annoying to have your "real name" be set as "." debugging tools: sniff the network. (snoop, tcpdump, etc). Does it send out a DNS query (or 5) and wait 30 seconds per? What's the mail process in the middle of while it hangs. 80% of the time it's about DNS. It *might* be about ident, but something is going out and waiting for a timeout. It's doubtfully anything to do with ipfilter. I might take ipfilter down long enough to send a message and see if it's different. If it IS, then start looking at (perhaps removing) each rule reply to the list, not me. And fix that "."
