Thanks,
That did the trick, I have uncommented the line Timeout.ident=30s in
/etc/sendmail.cf, and use a 1 second delay, and my problem went away, now I
can telnet to the port 25, and send email through the Firewall, and it
delays only 1 second instead of 30 seconds that was delaying.
For Sharing to all the FreeBSD Comunity...
This tweak its intended for all Administrators that have a Sendmail
server outside a Firewall/NAT implementation (not in the same server), and
the users that are behind the Firewall/NAT, are having long delays to send
email (30 seconds), and you dont want to disable DNS Lookups and use the
server as a relay server.
Thanks a lot, to all of you that cooperate to solve my problem, especially
Doug White and Steven Fletcher.
Ales

Sometimes the problem is identd.
Check your timeout.ident options in sendmail.cf, try lowering to 5
seconds and restart.
