I think I have ruled out DNS as an issue since it isn't needed just to display the inbox and because I have no delays using qmail and courier-imap with a standard client (Thunderbird). I also did a test sending an email to another domain on my box. I am pretty sure the issue isn't any of the external mail processes. SM is running under apache 2.2. I have a bunch of web sites running and response is blazing fast even with dynamically served sites using PHP and MYSQL. I get to squirrelmail via a subdomain which has the webmail directory as its DocumentRoot. i.e.: webmail.mtnlion.com. Note that there is a very long delay even getting to the login screen (I run SM under https and I have other pages also under https that don't suffer any delays). Unless I have this very wrong, DNS isn't needed to get to the login screen, and DNS is running very fast too. This server doesn't get a lot of traffic. Even putting in an invalid user name and password takes a very long time to display a screen.
