Hy, i'm Administrator of an University, and my mail (pop/imap) server has 5-6 average LA, the machine is an Dual Pentium Xeon of 2.4Ghz, with 1Gb of RAM, and one UW-SCSI 320 of 36Gb. My domain has 4000 email accounts, and 5 list of 3000 local users (that send one or two email by day). The problem is that users gets TIMEOUT everytime that try to download emails, etc etc.. My Webmail it's running on other server connecting by imap, and i have another SMTP that checks virus and spam. I don't know how can i do, i change from Sendmail to Postfix that helps a little bit, but still loaded. I will appreciate your help/experiences. My solutions could be: Change from mailbox to maildir, buy another disc only to be used by /var/spool/mail or building a mail server cluster (last choice).
Thanks, -- _________________________________________________ Mariano Agustín Wahlmann Administrador de Red Facultad de Agronomía - Buenos Aires - Argentina Te.: (+54 11) 4524-8000 int.8108 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.agro.uba.ar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
