Try to send an email from your system's command line or a standalone
application. If it's also slow it means that your SMTP server (or
enviroment) is just slow.
I use www.xpertmailer.com to send emails, it has tons of great features
[attachments, CC, BCC, etc] and excellent support (via forum). Try it!
I send emails via GMail and it takes 1-3 secs.
