Can the time for response be configured to prevent the condition I was

No. The normal TCP connection timeouts apply. If something in your
environment is preventing it from working properly, just turn it off.
ident isn't available on most modern hosts anyway -- Linux systems
usually have it disabled and Windows never had it.
Another question, how does courier handle lookups for private
addresses? Many people now use private addresses locally, so
dnslookup for a fully qualified domain name would fail but the local
name service would succeed. Does it use the operating systems name
lookup, (as defined in nsswitch) which in my case would succeed
through the hosts table in the server which also serves a number of
other functions on our network (wins).
The smtpd queries DNS for any domain names used in the smtp
conversation. If you have a private network, set up an internal-only
DNS server and put your names in it.
Is there a way to configure it for checking only addresses not on the
relay list
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Which relay list? What
addresses, specifically, are causing a problem? Please provide examples
of the actual problem you're trying to resolve.
Sorry, I didn't notice that this list didn't add a "Reply To:" for the
list. I'll try to be more careful.
Thanks
