Time outs like that often mean dns related problems.
Have you added the proper dns settings to /etc/resolv.conf in the vserver?
If so, does your mailserver run in a chroot jail? (like postfix) If so,
you need to copy the resolv.conf settings to the jail or your mailserver
will not know about them. If you're using postfix, it might be:
/var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf
That problem can be very frustrating and hard to track down.
BTW, if it's not dns related, the next most likely problem is routing, but
I've never seen that happen in a vserver.

Hi Christian!
Could you describe how this problem looked like? I have a mail-sending
problem
too and have absolutely no idea anymore, how to solve it:
A mailserver running on a vserver on a 2.4.23-vs1.21-host can't contact one
single remote mailserver (only 1 :-\). Connection always times out... and
that's it. works well with all other mailservers. A telnet to port 25 from
the host itself to this single mailserver times out equally..
could this be a vserver-related problem? I'd never thought of that..
Greetings
Alexander
