Hi Martin, You should be well within the limits of a single server. What else do you have running in terms of spam and virus filtering?
I would check for dead blacklists, which can delay mail processing and lead to overload, as well as check your average message processing time in the logs. Anything over two seconds per message with all spam and virus filtering would indicate a problem in your filtering configuration.

The Queue Manager needs more CPU power, more than expected. We have about 10000 Mails "local deliver" per day and 3500 "Remote Deliver per day. I'm in trouble to accept that 200 Domains are to much for this server. Any idea to fix this? Any finetuning which i can apply?
