Subject: smtp timeout
Mail::Util::maildomain should define short timeout when using Net::SMTP. my $smtp = eval { Net::SMTP->new($host,Timeout => 5) }; Five seconds or even less should be enough to reach mailhost or localhost. Default timeout is 120 seconds, for two hosts total is 4 minutes. Because of this perlbug startup is very big on Windows. As timeout does not work on Windows, I propose to skip SMTP part on Windows or add possibility to skip. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
