TIA for reading this Mail,

I have been running Courier for quite some while (more than a year), now all of a sudden a problem appeared:

Smtp connections from users start to time out... (IMAP/POP works fine! I did restart all courier processes and rebooted)

SMTP connections have the sender's IP address resolved via DNS, followed by an identd check.

Your DNS configuration broke somewhere, or a firewall is blocking identd connections. identd times out after 30 seconds, a longer delays indicates non-responsive DNS.
