Hi list,

I have to write a small SMTP-Relay script (+ some statistic infos) and I'm wondering, if this can be done in python (in terms of performance, of course not in terms of possibility ;) ).

It has to handle around 2000 mails per hour for at least 8hours a day (which does not mean, that it is allowed not to respond the rest of
the day.

Can this be done? or should I better use some other programming language?
My second choice would be erlang.

Check out Kenneth Rietz's inbox.py[1]

"It's quite quick. One instance should handle over one thousand emails per second."

So it should be able to handle your hour's load in oh, say 2 seconds? ;)

HTH,
W
