ah, but does it matter? I have nearly 900 in my rcpthosts file and I'm not
noticing anything in particular. I'm doing a constant stream of mail, but
never more than one stream at anyone time really... performance is fine.
I don't *really* know which domains are the busiest. To work that out I
would have to do something like get all the domains from the qmail logs,
use qmail-analog to weight them, sort the list of domains, and then split
them appropriately.
Currently I have a script that just generates the rcpthosts file from the
virtualdomains file, and that is generated out of a simple script that just
prints out a mysql table contents.
Ranking everything would be a bit OTT IMHO.
So, should I be worried? Does it matter? When does it matter?
cheers
