I don't know why or what's wrong, but I'll tell you what I'm seeing.
I have vanilla qmail, with the big todo patch installed and split boosted
up to 231. Smtp is receiving about 150,000 emails a day and it's taking
qmail about 24 hours to get through this amount of mail.
The group of people this mail list and mail server affects claims that
sendmail did this list in about 5 - 6 hours. I refuse to believe that
sendmail's performance in this can beat qmail. From my past I've seen
qmail handle this load with no problem.
I'm running out of options. I'd like to see qmail do well here, but
unless it starts really doing something major, I'll have to slap sendmail
back on there to make them happy. Please give me some magic.
Thanks
