If I set this up in DNS, what would happen if an outgoing server in the
cluster went down? Also how effective would the load balancing be?

I am interested in implementing this patch, but I am not sure how to do it.
I am thinking of writing a wrapper around qmail-queue that reads the message

What I don't know how to do is how to setup my wrapper to talk to

I was wondering if someone could tell me how to
send mail to one outgoing RehHat server, and make that server round robbin to 10
other smtp servers? I mail about 250,000 emails a night, and the
