Hi Folks,

I have an AIX 5.3 host which tries to send mail using the built-in sendmail. When I run mailq, it gets stuck for a few minutes, then gives a correct answer.

Now I would like to find out, what is mailq waiting for.

I suspect some kind of name resolution problem, but I can not find out what. The host does not use DNS, just files for name resolution ( hosts = local in /etc/netsvc.conf )

Do you have any ideas?
