Do you authenticate to the server prior to sending? If so, perhaps that server needs to be reconfigured as to not greylist incoming mails from authenticated SMTP sessions. Or, you could set up a local nullmailer[1] on your machine that will accept mails on a local queue and relay them to your real SMTP server. This way, Emacs will not have to go through the trouble to retrying to send mail (and subsequently blocking your other editing/etc work.) Footnotes: [1] http://untroubled.org/nullmailer/ -- I like the idea of 256 bits, though: 32 for the (Unicode) character leaves room for 224 Bucky bits, which ought to be enough for anyone. -- Roland Hutchinson, in alt.folklore.computers
