Maybe this will help all these peolpe which are intressted in thorughput

We (at least I and Noel) already use postal/rabid to test James, but Bernd is creating a different tool that should be easier and more powerful for James testing.

I used that, too. But it is very limited: You can put load on James, but you don't really know if messages were really spooled to the appropriate receiver or just were dumped somewhere and never processed (thus giving you high performance!) without checking by hand. This is not appropriate for automated end-to-end tests.


Later I will provide a "mocked javamail transport" I'm writing to test remotedelivery. This should help creating more realistic benchmarks (unreachable servers, errors in smtp server, retries, bounces).

I'm writing it to test an "advanced" remote delivery that try to reuse smtp connections to send multiple messages to the same domain, cache smtp errors, and more.


Cool. Sounds like this could improve throughput.
