Kris, We have four inbound MX relayers for our Exchange 2003 system. The inbound MX relayers run iMail/Junkmail and each have an equal preference level in the MX records.
Each of these servers are ONLY relayers. They're Dell Poweredge 1650's Dual Processor 1.2Ghz, 1GB RAM 3x36GB drives in RAID 0 (with the 3rd as a hot-swap). Logical partitions: 9GB C: (System OS) 7GB D: (Imail/Junkmail) 20GB E: (Junkmail Log Files using NTFS Mount point to d:\Imail\Declude\Spamlogs) Across all 4 relayers we process about 250,000-300,000 inbound messages a day (including spam/viruses). Works perfect for us. Mark E. Smith Systems and Technology Manager Associated Press Broadcast Technology 1825 K Street NW Suite 800 Washington, D.C.
