Ok... I fixed it. We were using PAM using LDAP for the authentication for SMTP and just LDAP for Dovecot (imap/pop3). I found an article on how to set SMTP to use Dovecot as the authentication source for email so I just change the LDAP settings in one place.
http://www.linuxmail.info/postfix-smtp-auth-dovecot-sasl/ That sped my lookups up when the "auth" line goes through, instead of being 30 seconds to more than a minute to less than a second. Thanks for all the input, but I thought I would pass it along that it was fixed. I did check and I am not using any RBLs, the failure was on the authentication. I did check DNS entries and made sure everything is going through successfully.
