Dated: Jan 12, 2004

The issue where the mail server waited about 5 seconds before accepting an SMTP connection has been resolved. The issue was due to a network configuration issue on the server

The issue itself affected neither incoming/outgoing email but some customers complained that it made the mail server appear 'sluggish'.

Additionally, some customers complained that while sending emails from the web servers, they would not be received by internal email addresses but would be received on external emails after the mail server migration. The issue was due to the same problem and has been fixed. Some frontpage forms that used email were also facing issues due to this problem

We recommend customers to use localhost from their web server scripts to send email but they can also connect to the mail server using SMTP authentication to send email
