I have a simular setup. Lets explain only my outbound mail :) -Generated outgoing mailmessage by mailman -Send by mailman to my sendmail (same machine as mailman) -Sendmail forwards all outgoingmail to main mailserver (w2k server with Mailtraq Version 1) -All outgoing mail from mailman domain is send to my backup mailserver (Mailtraq Version 2 on Windows XP) -Mailtraq Version 2 Sends it to my ISP smtp server. I have on Mailtraq 2 configured only 2 parallel outgoing connections (i have only 12kb/sec upstream). On Mailtraq Version 1 machine, i have more outgoing connections so my personal mail will be send immediatly instead of queued after a lot of mailman messages. Incomming mailman mail is about the same way but not routed though Mailtraq 2 server :) But instead of Microsoft software it can be done with sendmail too, i think. I just wanted to sepparate normal mail and mailinglistmail, and it's working well :) So just 1 outgoing message with many receipients in it. (limited at 300 per mail at mm_cfg.py) At the beginning i did use MX resolvings. Yech! took me hours to send out the mail. Now i am happy and is running for a few month.
