hi again,
i'm sorry the previous mail to the list got totally screwed, that was a problem with my web based email composition.
anyways i figured the problem out after doing an strace. all the mail clients were using the .signature file, which was corrupted and had the clients hung.

Check your DNS settings (/etc/resolve.conf). If possible use caching name server (BIND).
