 While doing telnet emailserver 25, it takes more than 2 minutes to get

Is that your ISP's mail server or your own?

If it is your own mailserver, do you have DNS running for the machines in your 
internal lan which send mails through this mail server?

Do you have host lookups turned on for your mail server?

1) It is our internal server with internal Primary DNS server
2) Host lookup is OK..

Email is working but it is very slow..

Why should server take so much time to respond to a telnet command on
SMTP port ??

because reverse lookup is not working?
  $ host your.internal.smtp.com
may give yu the address of the machine, but have yu tried vice versa?
  $ host x.x.x.x
where x.x.x.x is the smtp server's ip address

also, after the connection is established, how is the speed? is it okay?
