It very much depends on whether your users use imap or pop3. For 18 clients doing IMAP use something like nchildren = 4 maxchildren = 150 minsparechildren = 4 maxsparechildren = 8 maxconnects = 100 but really ymmv. Dual pentium doesn't really mean anything to me. 2G sounds good though, assuming you've properly tuned mysql. > We are experiencing a lot slow responses and time outs from dbmail.
