Read /etc/mail/README for an explanation of how mail is submitted and why
you need at least a localhost-only listening daemon or methods of
reconfiguring so you don't.
As far as the delay at startup, that usually means there are timeouts
trying to resolve your hostname or the IP address -> hostname lookups for
any network interfaces.
