Built-in DNS Resolver timeout issue

Published

First published on September 11, 2024.

Description

The built-in resolver in ORF does not adhere to the configured timeout settings, leading to excessively prolonged email processing times when DNS communication is obstructed, such as by a firewall rule or network issue.

Workaround

Configure ORF to use an external DNS server:

1. Start the ORF Administration Tool and connect to the local or remote instance
2. Open the DNS Settings (System > Network Settings > DNS Settings)
3. Select the Use external DNS servers option
4. Add one ore more local DNS servers to the list (do not use public or ISP DNS resolvers)
5. Click Ok
6. Save the ORF configuration (Ctrl + S) to apply the new settings

Fix

The bug will be fixed in the next update.
