Ie, ideal for processing/serving 10+ million emails per day in an
imail/declude/snf configuration.  SNF seems to generally be the big
processor hog (though the new beta has definitely made huge performance
improvements over the prior version).

OK...this is a bit off-topic, but I'm looking for some feedback in how to
plan for handling this type of load (current load is between 1.3m and
1.8m/day).

Should I just throw more high performance hardware at it?

Scale out perhaps by dedicating a server to just the junk mail scanning.
Then have a relatively wimpy server taking care of normal Imail stuff
(recipient of the declude/snf "clean" and/or "tagged" emails).  

Along that line of thought, can SNF be configured to work directly with the
MS/IIS SMTP server?  This combo could work great as a spam-killing gateway.

Has anyone assembled this sort of configuration in a load balanced/redundant
environment?
