Hi,

Now Let me try to configure a small one HotMail by up to down with
scale of 1,000,000 mail accounts. Please help me to finish this issue.

1. Choose OS as Linux 
   (or FreeBSD, Solaris ? PC or SUN ? I am not sure which one is better?)
2. Prepare 10 PC as qmail mail server which store real mail 
   (define as ms1.hotmail.com - ms10.hotmail.com, each server store
    100,000 users' mail, each server also handle pop3 service )
3. Prepare 1 PC as qmail-ldap server (define as ldap.hotmail.com)
4. Prepare 1 PC as qmail-smtp server, (define as smtp.hotmail.com)
    which process incoming mail to dispatch each mail to accurate 
    mail server (ms1 - ms10)

And DNS Setting:
hotmail.com   MX   0   smtp.hotmail.com

Operation flow: 
User with E-mail address : [EMAIL PROTECTED] , store in ms1.hotmail.com

When anybody sendemail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which mail will be send  
to smtp.hotmail.com,and smtp.hotmail.com will quere ldap.hotmail.com 
with real mail serverwhich store the [EMAIL PROTECTED], and then relay 
mail to ms1.hotmail.com

Is there anything wrong in my configuration and understanding with QMail ?
Do I miss anything ?

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards,

Farmer Tien
