For those of you running or building big mail systems, many have been
there, done that, such as Brad Knowles of Belgacom/Skynet in Belgium, and
formerly of AOL USA.
Here's a presentation he gave on tuning sendmail, but many points and
issues are applicable any mail system:

When I asked him if I could post the above URL here in the Imai list, he said:
"Sure, go ahead.
You might also want to tell them that I will be giving an invited talk at
LISA 2000 in December, on the subject of "Design and Implementation of
Highly Scalable E-mail Systems", which I will be co-authoring with Nick
Christenson (the author of the earlier Earthlink paper, which can be found at
http://www.jetcafe.org/~npc/doc/mail_arch.html)."
