Thanks again! I commented out the lookup for hosts in exim.conf on
sidekick. That did not get rid of the sluggishness. What might be the
problem with identd. I assume you mean that I need to change something on
sidekick regarding this daemon.
I'm curious what this line in exim.conf does:
route_list = "* mailhost.intac.com bydns_a"
I see the 'bydns' there and wonder if that is what causes this problem.
