Years and years ago, we built one.. and pulled it.. It was just helping the spammers ;)

But seriously, if you are sending billions of emails out, I think you can ..

* Afford a commercial product
* Afford to contribute to an open source product


Even thought of throwing some money at a couple of open source developers on say the Postfix team to help it scale?

(hope this isn't one of those cases of.. confuse open source with free questions ;)

Or even better yet, start an open source project.. the more alternatives, the better the world is..

And on that note..

"Hey Big Senders" .. (note not big spenders)

Please stop asking us to report bad actors on your networks for free, spend a little money and thank those that are doing your job for you.

(Yea, I stole his thread)

Okay, now everyone can jump in .. I am sure there are hundreds of smaller opensource projects that quietly exist out there.

For those of you who are on the sending side, managing at least a few billion outbound per month, what is the current feeling on open source mtas?

My understanding is that most of us have tried Postfix at some point and moved to a commercial product like PowerMTA, Momentum, Cloudmark, Green Arrow, MailerQ because Postfix didn't scale flexibly enough when you manage hundreds or thousands of IPs/domains/queues/mail streams each with very specific sending settings.

Is the general understanding still that no open source products can give the commercial mtas a run for their money?

Thanks,
Alex
