Performance of mailserevr in FreeBSD 5.4

[bsd]

I have configured four servers using FreeBSD 5.3 with the following  
ports :

- Postfix
- Amavisd-new
- SpamAssassin
- Dcc
- Courrier-IMAP
- Clamav

Not only is this working very well, but It's easy to update and very  
steady.

One of the configuration I have is load balancing the trafic (using  
MX DNS) between 2 servers (1U 3Ghz Intel proc). Servers are  
processing mail (virus scanned - user verification using LDAP - spam  
checked) and delivering them inside a network wher people are  
collecting them.

More than 10.000 mails are processed every day no problem.

If you need more detail - let me know.


Sincerly yours.
