There is some load-balancing on the incoming side that splits messages between servers, but nothing on the outgoing side. Mailman is run directly on each of the SMTP servers. I started doing the slicing awhile back when I was having trouble with mailman crashing occasionally, and wanted to ad

Its odd, I could have sworn the slicing used to be done per recipient, not per message. I've had to check logs for a client to confirm her messages went out, and generally had check all three machines to verify every user received the message. The rest of the process works as I expected it to
