I would agree to a point. For maybe up to (4) MX servers this might be ok. But if you have many more than that, load balancer might be a necessary evil. I'm not a big fan of full proxy load balancers, especially with this type of traffic. I would prefer a "one arm" load balancer, but unfortunately I don't know of any FOSS load balancers. Everything seems to be full proxy based. There is one that I know of; "pen", but that seems to be not actively developed... Using a one arm load balancer would negate needing any proxy protocol nonsense to preserve the client IP addresses.. -- inoc.net!rblayzor XMPP: rblayzor.AT.inoc.net PGP: https://pgp.inoc.net/rblayzor/ -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
