It issues the SMTP DATA command to the other site:
DATA
The local sendmail then waits for acknowledgment, which looks like this:
354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
The amount of time that the local sendmail waits for acknowledgment of its DATA
command is set with the datainit keyword, the forms of which are as follows:
O Timeout.datainit=timeout ?†? configuration file (V8.6 and later)
-OTimeout.datainit=timeout ?†? command line (V8.6 and later)
define(`confTO_DATAINIT??, `timeout??) ?†? mc configuration (V8.6 and later)
The default timeout is five minutes, and the specified minimum is two minutes. The mc
technique should use confTO_DATAINIT, which has no default.
24.9.119.9 Timeout.fileopen (V8.7 and later)
If a directory is remotely mounted and the server is down or not responding, an attempt to
open a file in that directory can hang. Beginning with V8.7, the fileopen keyword sets the
amount of time to wait for an open to complete.* The forms of this keyword are as follows:
O Timeout.fileopen=timeout ?†? configuration file (V8.7 and later)
-OTimeout.fileopen=timeout ?†? command line (V8.7 and later)
define(`confTO_FILEOPEN??, `timeout??) ?†? mc configuration (V8.7 and later)
The default is 60 seconds. The mc technique uses confTO_FILEOPEN, which has no default.
24.9.119.10 Timeout.helo (V8.6 and later)
After the greeting, the local sendmail sends a HELO (or EHLO to get ESMTP) message to
identify itself.
