[BlueOnyx:06825] slow Sendmail response

After migrating from a low powered BQ box to an overpowered BO box, my users
have reported that Sendmail is incredibly slow to respond. They noted that
emails sit in their outlook outbox for quite a while before transferring
over. 

 

I also noticed that if I telnet to port 25, it connects instantly, but it's
a good 10 seconds before I am greeted with a banner. 

Connecting via SSH also exhibits a 10+ second lag before it tries to log in.


Connecting via the GUI is instantaneous. 

 

The server is sitting almost idle and is barely working at all (99%id, all
others sitting at <0.5%). 

 

Any ideas on what to check first? 

 

 

 

Thank you,
