Depends on how many public IP addresses you have. I'd like recommend you
to have a try with keepalived. It's the balancing service software. Open
source. The front-end service keepalived will handle TCP request and
forward to the back-end servers you have. You can also setup the filter
also. Pretty nice.

Hi,
I need to create an infrastructure that allows to divide a list of
mails to send among a series of postfix mail servers.
For example, I imagine this situation so :
I install a series of postfix mail servers and when it's necessary to
send a mail it's enough to send it to an IP address that the actual
delivery of the mail is delegated to a server that has the lowest
charge of jobs...
I'm wondering if a particular configuration of postfix can be useful
to resolve this issue...
Someone advised me to insert in the DNS zone a list of MX records
defined with the same level of priority so the DNS server will choose
one of them without invoking always the same mail server....
It could be an idea, in my opinion, but I'd prefer a "less random"
solution and a more scientific one....
Thanks for every suggestion you'll send to me....
