If you are trying to simulate a very busy mailserver, then you should be concerned about connections to it from multiple hosts per second most sending one or a few messages and a realistic test would have to have a nominal TCP RTT in the range of a few to a few 10s of msec since the speed of light is limited and geographic delays come into play. I've been involved in testing and some simulation of this type but on routers and various switchy-thingies rather than mailservers.
