Hi,
I installed sendmail on a centos-4 openvz VM. I set up SMTP-AUTH
and when I try to send mail using this server, there is a big delay in
which my e-mail client (Mozilla Thunderbird) just hangs. The server, on
the other hand, is idle at the same time. It does that no matter if I
use no encryption, TLS, or SSL. When the client is 'hung' sendmail, on
the server side haven't logged anything yet for this connection.
Any idea?
Since nothing is logged on the server, it sounds like there is a
firewall (or
other networking problem) in the way. You should use WireShark (or
tcpdump) on
the client to capture the network traffic.
I disabled the firewall on the server, no luck. I tried sniffing, I see
nothing weird.

Can you run strace on sendmail during a connection and see what it's
doing? DNS is often the culprit when delays are concerned, so look for
anything along those lines.

Here is an interesting part, but I can't tell why it took 2.292863
seconds to do that:
09:07:47 time(NULL) = 1185455267 <0.000007>
09:07:47 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ALRM], [ALRM], 8) = 0 <0.000008>
09:07:47 select(8, [4 5 6 7], NULL, NULL, {5, 0}) = 1 (in [6], left {2,
707000}) <2.292863>
09:07:49 accept(6, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(25919),
sin_addr=inet_addr("74.59.221.180")}, [16]) = 9 <0.000023>
09:07:49 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [ALRM], [], 8) = 0 <0.000010>

Some operations are unfinished like this one:

There is a 5-second gap here (from one PID to the other, weird):
[pid 16312] 09:07:49 time(NULL) = 1185455269 <0.000010>
