Right.  I've had this with some ISPs I've tried as well.  I must
admit I'm curious as to why the time delay exists at all.  I wonder if
its a DNS related thing?

When I get a chance I'll do a packet trace on such an authentication,
IIRC, Yahoo email accounts have the time delay problem.

If anyone else on the list knows the solution to this problem, I'd
like to know what it is.

OK, not quite sure here, but if libltdl is already installed on your
system check that the installation isn't broken.  For example
if it came from an RPM try verifying it.

If libltdl is not already installed, try add ing the
 --enable-ltdl-install option to the configure script and install
libESMTP again, see if that clears the problem.
