I have been given
the task to send out 2 million emails in a 12 hour time window. All the emails
will be sent remotely, to a list of users of which is 90% accurate (I figure 10%
of the emails will bounceback because of bad email addresses) I have all the
bandwidth I need (servers are located in co-location) and will be sorting the
email list by domain name.
My initial idea is
to have 2 dedicated qmail servers, ( Redhat Linux 6.2, Pentium 600, 500Megs RAM,
IDE drives) configured with a concurrency limit of 400. Other than that, the
qmail install will be out of the box.
Can I reasonably
meet this rate ? Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks in
advance
