Phew!!! Same thing with those RPM's. Thanks for the link Gordon, nicely done, I really appreciate it. It has answered one thing; whether the issue was a compile problem. It's not.

Good enough. One possibility down.

I'm sorry to say, that the same exact thing happens with those RPM's, as was with the binaries I have built here. So it just has to be me!

Did you remove all of the old binaries and config files prior to install?

I removed all the courier rpm's, then compiled from source 0.39.3 with ./configure, make, make check, make install, make install-configure

I then fired up courier and I have the same issue trying to send external email, courieresmtp eats up 90% of the CPU cycles.

this is on redhat 7.1

If so, maybe there's some sort of library problem... Run ldd on courieresmtp and see what you get. Should look like this:

# ldd /usr/lib/courier/libexec/courier/modules/esmtp/courieresmtp libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4001e000) libgdbm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2 (0x40022000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x42000000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

# ldd /usr/lib/courier/libexec/courier/modules/esmtp/courieresmtp libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4001c000) libgdbm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2 (0x40020000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40026000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

And if it does look like that, then run 'rpm -qf' and 'rpm -Vf' on each file. 'rpm -Vf' should always return nothing:

# rpm -Vf /lib/libdl.so.2 /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2 /lib/i686/libc.so.6 \ /lib/ld-linux.so.2

libc.so.6 is under /lib/libc.so.6 on my system is this a possible cause??

# rpm -qf /lib/libdl.so.2 /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2 /lib/i686/libc.so.6 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 glibc-2.2.5-39 gdbm-1.8.0-14 glibc-2.2.5-39 glibc-2.2.5-39

But I can't figure out what! What is it about courieresmtp that needs to be configured to send mail *out* of the server?!?

Should just work.
