Hi, I'm trying to setup a postfix enviroment to relay about 200k mails per hour. The hardware and the network link will be well dimensioned, so I like to talk about the configuration part of this setup. There are several options to tune in postfix, like timouts and concurrent sessions etc..
My idea was basically to setup two smtp services. One which has very short timeouts and uses lots of concurrent sessions etc.. A second one which takes the non deliverable mails from the first one and tries with longer timeouts and less sessions to deliver mail. So the first one is not blocked and can just continue to deliver, and the second one makes the dirty work. Does such a setup make sense to you? I read about the ability to run multiple instances of postfix with version > 2.6. Would this be a setup to use multiple instances? Christian
