Hi list, Robert: thanks for your quick reply. Sorry for being vague - This is for internal outgoing mail only (my linux servers->my postfix relay server->ISP mailserver). I would like loadsharing (maybe real balancing is not needed for me...) between my linux server->my postfix relay server. My guess is I could do this (atleast) 2 ways: 1. DNS RoundRobin 2. MX with equal weight
Any thoughts: e.g. will mail actually retry delivery for all IP's listed in DNS RR if one is not responding, or will it just directly return to sender=local linux user without trying any of the other IP's...) ? Thanks in advance :-) ! ~maymann 2011/12/22 Robert Schetterer <rob...@schetterer.org> > Am 22.12.2011 19:01, schrieb Michael Maymann: > > Hi List, > > > > I would like to setup a stable and reliable mailrelay solution based on > > PostFix, that is both redundant and could share the load between 2 > > physical servers. > > How is this done best...? thoughts/documentation/howtos are very > > welcome...:-) > > > > > > Thanks in advance :-) ! > > > > ~maymann > > the cheap way ,have 2 equal weight mx records, i ve seen this outside, > not sure if you may run in problems with that, better way, use some > loadbalancers before postfix, search the list archive about it > as in real world , there is no best, there is only "a best" what fits to > "your" needs > > -- > Best Regards > > MfG Robert Schetterer > > Germany/Munich/Bavaria >
