Hi:

I have been using qmailtoaster to replace a hand-cobbled similar system for about a year and have been pretty happy. I have a setup with two mail servers that run mail for about 20 domains. My primary server can get pretty busy, so I have all the domains pointed to a secondary MX as well - the DNS looks like this:

   MX   koala 10
   MX   platypus 20

When I take koala down for maintenance or when it is been deluged with SPAM (I run network checks on it), I get a fair amount of mail sent to my secondary on platypus.

Platypus is setup so that each domain has an entry in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes that points to koala - it is really just acting as an external delivery queue.

My problem is that mail trickles from platypus to koala - I want it to drain much faster. My questions: 1. what should my /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp entry look like to enable much higher throughput from platypus to koala - it seems to be very slow 2. How much spam filtering should I do on my secondary before it goes to the primary (this impacts point #1 above)

Any other advice from people doing similar things is welcome.
