Hi Friedrich Yes correct.

Then add the mx record in my domain context for each of the mail server. It will be one mx record pointing to my domain's mx record and n ( the number of mail server) in my domain dns for each mail server, i.e. : 1k domain records + 5 mail servers record. Right ?

Just create a A DNS record for each mailhost. and define a MX record has 5 IP address. example dns settings for all domains: IN MX mx.mymasterdomain.com mx IN A 192.168.1.1 mx IN A 192.168.1.2 mx IN A 192.168.1.3 mx IN A 192.168.1.4 mx IN A 192.168.1.5 mail1 IN A 192.168.1.1 mail2 IN A 192.168.1.2 mail3 IN A 192.168.1.3 mail4 IN A 192.168.1.4 mail5 IN A 192.168.1.5 Do you have any antispam gateway in front of the mail servers? If you have,some antispam gateway solutions have a feature to lookup mailhost entry on LDAP and directly forward email to correct mailhost. If you define all domain names in control/locals control/rcphosts, hosts will forward the mail to correct mailhost via QMQP protocol. This is the same for POP3/IMAP sessions.

My doubt is the following: These 1k domain may be served by any of the 5 qmail server, ok? Will i have to include 5 mx recorder for each of the 1k domain? That will make 5k entries in my dns server, is that right ? thanks in advance.
