* don't reply off-list * don't top-post https://www.google.at/search?q=email+MX+round+robin if you meant to *send* 5 Mio mails per day that is another story forget it - you will hit all sort of rate-limits until you can not spread the outgoing messages over differnt source IP's - in that case no further support of me because i hardly can think of 5 Mio *legit* mails per day which is not spam > How do i take that information from my server? I am new to this, > can you guide me it is a bad idea if you are new in maintain a mailserver start with such a big beast - that will not work
