How much memory does this box have? What kind of HDs? What's the load like when its taking an hour to send mail? Which version of sendmail? Which kernel version? What kind of network connection do you have (type & speed)?

Hi

When i am processing 10,000 subscribers for the
mailing list testing, then the records took 15 mints
to clear the qmail queue and after 15 mints i checked
that all the records came to sendmail queue and then
it started for clearing the queue.
But when the same testing i did with 50,000 records, I guessed that altogether qmail willl take 75
mints to clear its mailq?
But i saw that the processing became very slow in
the middle. I mean sendmail was accepting the mail
very slowly....And finally all the mails to come from
qmail server to sendmail server, took almost 4 hrs....
As the qmail doc is telling that qmail clears the
50k queue in 1 hr or less(if it does not have any
deferred mails) then.. what should i think ...Is it
the sendmail that slagging down the process for
handling the huge queue? Moreover the server i am using for processing the list where qmail is
installed, it is
intel XEON with multiprocessors - I mean physically 4
CPUs are running.. I have now created 5 users and each users for
10,000 aliases, that means purposely i have
distributed the records in between 5 users... How can i process more quickly in my sendmail
server.. I want that it will process its mail queue
more quickly so that the qmail server can generate
50,000 records to sendmsail server within 1 hr or
less....
In my earlier mail , i have posted the
sendmail.mc file....


Your suggession is always appreciated...
