This is very interesting.  I have also had a great deal of trouble with smtp
delays.  In my case it was either an ident and DNS lookup that was causing
the delay.  I am using qmail.  

If there was a massive knowledge base for FreeBSD and the ports, I think
resolving these issues would be quite simple.  Currently I have to search
deja, the mailing list, google, etc to find what I need.  Microsoft,
regardless of what others say, has a very good knowledge base and would be a
good example to follow.

Anyone know of knowledge base web software?  I would be willing to host it.
I imagine it would not be hard to write, but I don't have the time.  I
already have a substantial list of 'spare time' projects.
