After send a message with mutt or mail, send-mail tends to take about
10 minutes or so to send it.

I continue to do a;

 $ ps ax | grep send
and get

  139  ??  Ss     0:03.31 sendmail: accepting connections on port 25 (sendmail)
62599  p3  S      0:00.23 send-mail -i lowell@world.std.com (sendmail)
62655  p3  S      0:00.15 send-mail -i ggrx@cris.com (sendmail)

showing recent emails going out...

what is it waiting for - it wouldn't be an issue, but right
now I need to shut down the system, fire up windows 95, do
some work - and leave to do some tasks.  I'm kept waiting
here on sendmail...
