e., it defaults
to the setting for Timeout.connect). The mc technique uses confTO_ICONNECT, for which
there is no default. The N line in the qf file (?§11.12.12 on page 452) determines whether
this is the first attempt. If the value in that line is zero, this is the first delivery attempt.
24.9.119.13 Timeout.ident (V8.6 and later)
The sendmail daemon queries every outside connecting host with the RFC1413 identification
protocol to record the identity of the user at the other end who made the connection
and to verify the true name of the remote connecting host. The default timeout is to wait
five seconds for a response. The ident keyword is used to change this timeout. If your site
accepts mail from PCs running SMTP software, you might need to disable this feature.
Some PCs get stuck when queried with the RFC1413 identification protocol. The forms of
this keyword are as follows:
O Timeout.ident=timeout ?†? configuration file (V8.6 and later)
-OTimeout.ident=timeout ?†? command line (V8.6 and later)
define(`confTO_IDENT??, `timeout??) ?†? mc configuration (V8.6 and later)
If the timeout is zero, the ident protocol is disabled. The mc technique uses confTO_IDENT,
for which there is no default.
24.9.119.14 Timeout.initial (V8.6 and later)
When sendmail first connects to a remote site, that site sends an initial greeting message.
