It's running a scsi IBM 18 GIG drive which is not the greatest but ...works ok. I read that postfix will put mail in mailq if the drive is slow.......but's it's a scsi !! Any suggestion would be appriciated on how to make this server accepting all this email since it's a mail server for search engine submissions.
