Definition: The time that the local system waits,
after sending the entire message, for an
acknowledgement from the other site that the
message was received.

Detail: Maintaining a cached connection between
the local system and any other site requires
additional system resources compared to a
non-cached connection. If connection caching is
enabled, the local system waits for the defined
time-out period and if no message is received, it
sends a RSET command to the other site.
Minimum: None defined.

Definition: The time that the local system waits for
an acknowledgement of the QUIT command.

transmitting a message and wants to break the
connection, it sends a QUIT command. It then waits
for the other site to acknowledge the QUIT
command. When the acknowledgement arrives, or
when the time-out value is reached, whichever
comes first, the local system breaks the connection.
Minimum: None defined.
Default: 5 minutes
