A newly installed Linux (FC6) Server, planning to be a internal email server, no RELAY, just local uses email communicate to local users
Dovecot, Sendmail both installed and start, WITHOUT 'DNS'
Servername (default) : localhost.localdomain
**Testing 1**
Under Fc6 Kernal test the following:
telnet localhost 25 [within 1 seconds, OK]
telnet localhost 110 [within 1 seconds, OK]
telnet 192.168.0.x 25 [within 1 seconds, OK]
telnet 192.168.0.x 110 [wait 60-75 seconds, finally ok]
<-- This is the problem
The problem is why? using IP address will cause a time delay?
**Testing 2**
Under Outlook Express
Receiving Email [fast, OK]
Sending Email [wait 60-75 seconds, sometime ok, somtime not]
So, the question should be back from why telnet under FC6 kernal have problem first?
