If you are using sendmail, try enabling sendmailnow in editparams.pl. For earlier versions of sendmail, one could achieve significant performance improvement in the UI (at the cost of delaying the sending of mail) by setting this parameter to off. Sites with sendmail version 8.12 (or higher) should leave this on, as they will not see any performance benefit. If you are using an alternate MTA, make sure the options given in Bugzilla/BugMail.pm and any other place where sendmail is called are correct for your MTA.

If you are using an alternate Mail Transport Agent (MTA other than sendmail), make sure the options given in the “processmail” and other scripts for all instances of “sendmail” are correct for your MTA. If you are using Sendmail, try enabling “sendmailnow” in editparams.cgi. If you are using Postfix, you will also need to enable “sendmailnow”.
