RE: Using Postfix To Send Usermin Mail

[Jim H. <ji...@ha...>]

New situation - I was reading the last Email that Fred sent me and all
of a sudden I got the last test message (after changing the option in
the module to /usr/sbin/sendmail) about 3 hours after I sent it. I then
sent out 4 more messages, 2 to addresses on my local Email Server, 1 to
my ISP address and 1 to my work address...

The 2 sent to MY server came back instantly. Still awaiting the ISP and
work one to make it... Any reason why it would wait before sending stuff
out that isn't on my local MTA?

Thanks!
