question

Should sending email via sendmail result in a long wait?

In my previous hosting setup I used the ```sendmail``` command to send email when I needed to notify myself about system occurrences. But I've been trying it out in DigitalOcean, and it consistently takes almost exactly 1 minute to execute. Is this expected? Maybe an intentional rate-limiting measure? That would be fine, but it causes certain actions on my site to time out. I could execute the command in the background, but I'd like the exit status to tell the user if there was a problem (e.g. if they're using a "contact admin" form). So: what's going on, and is there a way to mitigate it? Platform: Ubuntu 12.04.5 32-bit kernel 3.2.0-24-virtual ip 198.211.116.82 sendmail 8.14.4

How to route mail (Dovecot, Postfix setup ) to Office 365 - same domain

Hi to all, This is my very first post and I think is a good chance to express my gratitude and satisfaction with DO services and great community support. I have setup a working Linux mail server on my DO droplet, however recently, I have decided to switch over to Office 365 subscription and updated my DNS tables records to forward MX for my domain to Microsoft Exchange servers. Everything was successful and now it was deployed in production. On my Droplet webpage there is a contact mail form for visitors, which sends email to mailbox accounts registered on my droplet mail server. Same mail accounts boxes are already setup in Office 365, however the problem is that all messages sent form the webpage mail form are routed locally - only on the droplet mail server itself since the domain name and mail accounts are both identical on my Linux box and Office 365 . My setup: On the Postfix server and Office 365 I have: alias - hostmaster@example.com forwarded to user1@example.com user2@example.com user3@example.com Is there a workaround to actually force Postfix to send the messages to external Exchange server given the fact that both servers are sending mail for example.com Your valuable advise and support would be highly appreciated. Thanks
