Hi,

I am running sendmail 8.12.10 on Solaris 8 (say smtphost). 
I am forwarding all emails from this smtphost to another host
host2.mydomain.com (env: Solaris 2.6, sendmail 8.12.10, 
Mimedefang 2.41, Spamassassin 2.63 clamav 0.70). 

The smtphost is logging plenty of mail notices for the same 
message and the other server host2.mydomain.com is receiving 
more than one copy  (in fact there were 18 copies) of the same 
email.

Below is the message from the syslog file from the smtphost.

Apr 20 11:31:01 smtphost sm-mta[12602]: [ID 801593 mail.notice] 
i3J4JXsO012737: timeout waiting for input from host2.mydomain.com. 
during client DATA status 

Apr 20 11:31:01 smtphost sm-mta[12602]: [ID 801593 mail.info] 
i3J4JXsO012737: to=userid at host2.mydomain.com, delay=21:11:27, 
xdelay=01:00:02, mailer=esmtp, pri=1649026, relay=host2.mydomain.com. 
[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection timed out with 
host2.mydomain.com.

I'd be grateful for any help.

Regards,
Ajaya Sharma
