Does this application really need Postfix and a queue? Why not just turn the script into an SMTP server that pre-forks a fixed number of copies and loops receiving/processing email? For 200-300 msgs/sec on an I/O constrained server with a single "mailbox", one really does not need Postfix, and can't afford the I/O cost of a local queue. -- Viktor.
