# postconf mail_version
mail_version = Snapshot-20011127

I replaced a BSD/i machine with much faster FreeBSD machine.  All ftp 
performance sending big files to the fbsd machine appears as fast or faster 
than the old machine.

But sending files with large attachments through postfix is horribly slower.

A 65 mb attachment sent through FreeBSD took 35 minutes, then sending the 
same attachment through BSD/i (sendmail) took 2 minutes  (sender PC and 
both bsd's on same LAN, of course).

The FreeBSD machine is basically idle

any ideas where to look?
