Found out it was a firewall issue and that is open now. though my problem has gone from connection refused to: Feb 27 08:22:04 web1 sendmail[85505]: j1MIj4DI065443: <...> delay=4+19:37:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=22920813, relay=bhost1.broadjam.net., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with bhost1.broadjam.net. is there a timeout that I can set in sendmail to set a longer wait time on this? my flags in my rc.conf are: sendmail_enable="YES" sendmail_flags="-bd -q30m" # -bd is pretty mandatory. I am in a bit of a panic because my mail queue is starting to fill up and I need to get these messages out.... thanks, ken; On Feb 25, 2005, at 11:11 AM, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > On 2005-02-25 11:03, Ken Hawkins <ken@rosewoodblues.com> wrote: >> first.... thank you all for the invaluable amount of info and >> resorses that flow through this mail list..
