I have to grow the system from a capability of 250K
msg/day up to as much as 2.5M/day. I have to add
virus detection, spam filters, and seperation for
an encryption trunk. I'm assuming as many as five boxes
in the cluster - I will have the baseline system
online while I do this and then use the baseline as
a backup when I switch over.
I'm using a home built K7/AMD system because it's half
the price of the of the shelf and I've built a couple
of dozen - and tested them - so far so good...
As far as the 250Kmsg/day estimate per/box - I'm not
sure what going to happen once I turn on the virus
detection and spam filtering. I'd like to test it
before I go online with it also...
