Dear Marilen Corciovei,
first allow me to thank you for putting together all these tools for simple installation and use. Yet I am having a question related to how much overhead these architecture can impose upon a machine. I am planning to buy the opencomputing platform for use on a system with a max of 100mails/sec. Can such a thing be doable? What hardware architecture do you suggest.
I'd like to get some more info on your requirements:
1) What are the other software you're planning to run on the openprotect machine? Is it just a relaying mail server through which mails are scanned by openprotect and sent to a POP3/IMAP store or a server which runs the mail server, POP3, IMAP and also a webmail?
2)Do you already have a mail gateway which is handling 100 mails/sec? If yes, more details on your current hardware will help us in specifying the hardware for openprotect.
3)What is the average size of each mail? How many such mails do you transfer per day? Because, if all the 100 mails/sec are 2 KB mails, the load is very less. On the other hand, if they're 1 MB, then the load is going to be very high.
