Hello,

I'm using my iRedMail server in combination with PHPMailer to send email from my webserver.
Everytime i do this it takes approximately 254 seconds before it sends an email.

Does anyone know how this can be?

Greetings,

I have a section in my script that counts the seconds of runtime. I tried sending 7 emails from this script and this was the response: Total execution time in seconds: 1783.1004209518

Did you use IP address of server hostname as mail server address? Is it possible that it toke too long to resolve the mail server address? You'd better test it manually like this:

$ telnet <mail_server_hostname> 25
