Nitin This past summer I performed some load testing on our Apache James setup. I used the utilities that come with Postfix to make this happen: 1) smtp-source (http://www.postfix.net/smtp-source.1.html) 2) smtp-sink (http://www.postfix.net/smtp-sink.1.html) I could never get Postage setup properly nor Postal ( http://doc.coker.com.au/projects/postal/).
I setup a separate machine running CentOS Linux that would perform the sending and receiving of messages and wrote a couple of little scripts that made use of the smtp-* commands. My test setup was still a long way from simulating the real world but it gave me a reasonable test-bed for trying out different configurations of James (as well as comparing to other MTAs). Hope that helps you get started. todd On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 10:01 AM, Nitin Gupta <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi All, > > > > Please suggest on which tool I can use to load test the James server?
