[cobalt-users] sendmail response is too slow

["Mark Yamamoto" <mark@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, All

I have RaQ4 and have some problem with sendmail.
When I send e-mail from RaQ by using perl script, it takes more than 40
seconds (sometimes more than 1 minutes!) to send email.
I use the script line something like:

open ($MESSAGE, "$SENDMAIL_PATH $ADDRESS");

Actually it's ok to takes minutes to send it, but I want "open()" returns
immediately right after its call.
If I use sendmail from command line, it takes long time to actually send it
and finish the command.
I just wander this problem is because of sendmail configuration or this is
just normal.
If it's normal, then is there anyway to speed up sending email?

Any help will be really appriciated.
Thank you.
