I battered my postfix server with 200K mails once. Just for a stress

postfix chugged along through it with very little impact to other

We have a java mailer application which was hung and queued more than

Anyway I can prepare for it?

Thanks! I am not just worried about the system performance, but
possible blacklisting as it may send flurry of mails to external domains.
