Zitat von Martin Bley <martin.b...@bvl.bund.de>:

Hi list,

does anybody have experienced data about the delivery rate of a single
postfix smtp server in the following scenario

 - server is a Dell PowerEdge 2850
 - 2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU
 - 4 GiB memory
 - running a caching DNS resolver locally
 - 75 MiBit/s backbone to the internet

You have omitted some relevant facts:
- The performance of the I/O system (bandwidth/latency)?
- Where do you deliver to (outgoing-only, relay, mixed)?
- If outgoing only, how do you feed in the mails to send?

Assuming you do outgoing only with a clean list and many different targets you should achieve something in the line of some hundred mails/second without problems. The game is out if your list contain a big share to only a small number of freemailers like yahoo,hotmail,gmx etc. With this you should try to get on their whitelists.

Regards

Andreas
