Hi there,
 
IM very sorry for the long mail that I have sent. But Just elaborating the problem as I could not understand what and where was the glitch in my config.
 
We have a database of 100,000 mails and we will be sending personalized mails to each user automatically. We use redhat 6.2 ( extfs, kernel 2.2.14 ) and qmail for mailing.
 
Before mentioning the problem the config parameters that I have used in qmail and system config are
system config
--------------
dell poweredge server with 1GB RAM and scsi disks with 12000 rpm, dual CPU.
redhat 6.2, kernel 2.2.14, extfs.
Network bandwidth = 22Mbps
 
qmail config
--------------
concurrencyremote = 400
queuelifetime = 345600
timeoutremote = 600
timeoutsmtpd = 600
 
and all the others are default parameters.
 
The problem is that, when I tried sending  4700 mails ( to different domains ..... say like yahoo, hotmail, rediff, etc and not a single user in my domain ), it took one whole day to send all the mails.. qmail-inject placed mails in the queue at a speed of 70 - 90 mails in a second. But, if the logs are checked, it took one whole day to finish sending all the mails
 
Was I wrong anywhere or missed any configuration ???????
 
What should I do to send say a million mails in a day ?
 
Thanks & Regards,
