hmm, 350 msg / second, or 2.9 msec /msg. Hot damn, that�s fast. :)))
Here today�s actual stats from a send-only gateway:

(Note that MS�s is badly beat by AOL�s by the above. I guess MS doesn�t
have enough resources. :))) I�m guessing MS runs MS OS, and AOL runs *nix )
Back of the envelope, let�s call it 15 sec/msg on avg to send.
One SMTP process can send 86400 secs/day / 15 secs/msg = 5760 msgs/day.
30 million msgs / 5760 msgs = 5200 SMTP processes in one machine. Just Do
It!! :))
Plus that�s at least 30 million DNS queries, giving 3500 queries/sec. I
wouldn�t trust MS DNS with that.
Whatever, that�s the way you calculate this stuff.
