Re: [cobalt-users] SOLVED: Sendmail 8.9.3 and ORDB

[Bill Gunning <bgunning@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been following this discussion for a while, and have search
the archives... But I am still trying to figure-out how this works, does
adding these lines slow down sendmail? Also do you have to have
an agreement or sign-up to use relays.osirusoft.com, relays.ordb.org
or relays.ordb.org

Also how long does it take sendmail to check the email?
