You better define lots, and the intended hardware
p2-350 dedicated solely for this task, 1 gigabyte RAM running on debian 2.4
>are we talking thousands of messages a day? hundreds? millions?
probably between 100-200,000
and are you going to be sending messages concurrently? or one after the

either/or depending on the MTA!

qmail?
