I maintain a mailing list for our LUG and have a problem with some of
the mailservers to which mail is sent.  A few of the messages result in
a syn_sent on the connection to the remote mail server.  I understand
from my search of the archives that some mailservers use this to combat
SPAM and attempt to slow down the sending server.  I am running RH6.1
with all the RH patches.  This occurrence seems to stop sendmail from
sending or at least slowing things to a crawl when the remote plays this
game.

Is there a fix to this or do I just throw the corresponding members off
the mailling list?

TIA

Fred
