Hello,
Our company has been using IMail for a few months now for internal use. Now
we would like to offer free web and pop based e-mail through an automated
on-line registration process. I am considering using IMail with an extenal
user database on SQL 7 and making the registration process with ASP. I was
wondering who is currently using IMail in a similiar situation and what
insight someone may have to offer.
In particular I am concerned with:
- security and spam (I belive smtp-auth doesn't work with an external
database)
- hardware and disk space required for x amount of users
- best possible solution for dividing up the load for redundancy and
performance
- amount of attention required on a daily basis for maintenance
Initially I don't expect a huge amount of users (under a thousand) but I
would like to make sure that it is reliable. I currently do my own
web-hosting and DNS and am curious to know if I can use some of the
resources of our web machines for better performance, or redundancy.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John
