It depends on the domain. A domain with one mail server would take around
50 bytes of RAM and one with 10 mail servers may take 10x
more (it depends on the length of the actual mail server names for the
domain).

If you set the SMTP Server to 1024 threads then it should not be 122. Does
it say 1024 when iMS starts (in the log file)?

Right now we are having problems with iMS 2.0 sending large quantities of
mail. iMS 2.0b will correct this (should be released
soon).
