How many "hops" are between your site and your mail server? There are times
when I travel and call into one of those "1-800" numbers to get my mail. One
night my mail was taking an unusually long time to start transferring and a
couple times it timed out. I did a traceroute and found my mail server was
almost 20 hops away.

Thanks for the info, it was helpful, but I don't think it is exactly what I
was looking for. I am going to look into what you have described though,
mine was set to 5 as you suggested.

The problem I was trying to describe is when a POP3 client connects to
receive mail. From the time of the connect, Domino appears to be gathering
all the mail together before starting the transfer to the client. For
example, I have had several hundred messages after a vacation, thanks to
lists like this one <grin>, and before one message is transferred it can
take almost 5 minutes. I am fairly sure about the time, because 5 minutes is
the timeout I have set on my Outlook client. Once the transfer starts, it
can still take a considerable amount of time, but the "time to start" when
receiving to a POP3 client is my problem.

Thanks,
