Betreff: [Exim] Timeout at data close
Ok, I'm stuck. I've jumped through the hoops. I've waved the rubber chicken.

Symptom: With certain sites, and certain messages hang at end of data.
I've seen this problem mentioned in the Archives, and have tried
every fix I've found there.

Status in msglog/

2003-05-01 15:44:51 SMTP timeout while connected to mail.roadrunner.nf.net [192.75.13.132] after end of data (6535 bytes written): Operation timed out
2003-05-01 15:44:51 fannyt@??? R=dnslookup T=remote_smtp defer (60): Operation timed out: SMTP timeout while connected to mail.roadrunner.nf.net [192.75.13.132] after end of data (6535 bytes written)

Situation:

Mail server is named postie. He's running exim-4.14, compiled with
DELIVER_OUT_BUFFER_SIZE=512

Firewall is win2k running sygate office network for NAT translation.
The firewall is set to use an MTU of 1400.

Link is bidirectional: Uplink is 28,800 modem connection to Telus.net
Downlink is DirecPC satellite link. (Which is why the firewall runs windows.
Sigh.)

The same problem occurs with even greater frequency (more sites)
with Midpoint firewall.

What do I try next?

I'm including tcpdump -vvv and exim -d logs.
